Now owned by (LW) Reporting marks CDAC Locale Maine-Quebec Dates of operation 1994–2002 Predecessor Canadian Atlantic Railway Successor Montreal, Maine & Atlantic Railway Length 372 miles (599 km) Headquarters Hermon, Maine The Canadian American Railroad (reporting mark CDAC) was a railroad that operated between Brownville Junction, Maine and Lennoxville, Quebec. The railroad later expanded west to Farnham, Quebec and then St-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Quebec with running rights on Canadian Pacific Railway (CP) to Montreal, Quebec. CDAC was established in 1994 and operated as a railroad between 1995 and 2002. It was owned by transportation holding company Iron Road Railways. For the remainder of the 1990s, CDAC was able to dramatically increase the amount of freight traffic handled from what CP had carried, largely due to aggressive marketing and customized service, particularly for the forestry industry.
