Again, what is the definition of "quick". From the poster's comment, it would be easy to infer a quick one or two day course would be all that is required. That is not the case. I haven't flown the 75 or 76 so I can't comment on the differences training required for them. I would imagine it isn't quick though.
At Delta there are so many variations between the 757-200, 757-300, & 767-300/767-300ER that we don't even have differences training. It's all one course, & each airplane has a Vol I that contains a differences section.

That makes sense. The length of initial training on an airframe combined with sims would allow one time to digest the material.

I am saying a one to two day course probably without sim training.

Q400s
 
Pinnacle has 28 of Bombardier's Q400s in operation for United Airlines and 16 of its CRJ 900 regional jets in operation for Delta.

The turboprops are being transferred to another undisclosed United operator while the Delta contracts covering 140 50-seat CRJ200 aircraft and the larger CRJ900 have been extended until early 2013.
