(1-2) My first ride on an RDC unit was from Montreal - Quebec City except there was a bridge out or something and we stopped short at Ste-Foy - on this 0deg day.

(3) inside

(4) Heading back to Montreal, my notes say this was possibly a late train #20 from Montreal.
RS-10 #3659 led along with a steam generator car.

(5) One of the many kerosene switch lamps still in service.

If I remember correctly, in 1980 all Quebec trains terminated at Ste. Foy.  Service to Gare du Palais (?) was restored several years later.

On this warm day in Northeast Ohio, these cooled me off at least five degrees 
Thanks for sharing these.
