Remarks & Notes

The CPR Montreal West Tower Operator's view. The commuter rush is over. The Westminster Avenue gates are lowered and the switches lined for "The Laurentian" to cross over from Track 3 to Track 1 and the South Junction Lead and begin its journey to Albany and New York City. Despite the short train the D&H used two units in the winter to ensure adequate steam heating capacity.
