Canadian Rail #446 1995 May-June
Canadian Rail is published bi-monthly. FRONT COVER: One of the original Mount Royal Tunnel electric locomotives, No. 101, delivered to the Canadian Northern Railway in 1916, poses beside multiple-unit car M-2 at Val Royal Que. on October 20, 1968. The occasion was a CRHA excursion to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the start of service through the tunnel. Locomotive 101 (then 601) hauled the first train in regular service on October 21,1918. More than a quarter century after this photo was taken, this vintage equipment is still in service! However the end is near, and June 2, 1995 will see the retirement of the old equipment (and the demolition of Val
Royal station, seen in the background) as the line is modernized.Photo by Fred Angus.
