Viewing Album:  CNR fan trip from Montreal to Saint-Léonard Junction
 
By:Denis Chartrand
Dates:5/25/1974 - 5/25/1974
Album Info:Fan trip from Montreal to Saint-Léonard Junction, Québec, organized by the St-Lawrence Valley Railway Society on May 25th, 1974. The Canadian National locomotive is number 1262, a SW1200 switcher and was at that time one of the few locomotives still in old CNR color. Note that all the train consists is also in old color. The fan trip was done on a secondary CNR line passing through Montreal south shore towns like Longueuil, Boucherville, Varennes, Verchères, Sorel, Pierreville, Nicolet, etc, up to St-Léonard Junction village that was connecting this secondary line to the main line between Montreal and Quebec city. A few years after this fan trip, the wood trestle in Pierreville town burned, and the tracks between Sorel and St-Léonard Junction were abandoned and removed. St-Léonard Junction village is now called St-Léonard-d'Aston, merged with Aston Junction village a few miles east.
