rr caboose Date: 04/28/24 15:17 Re: CN electric Author: Ray_Murphy CN 225 was originally Quebec Railway, Light & Power Co. #30, built in the QRL&P Limoilou Shops (information from Extra 2200 South Issue 50).
I have no idea where the photo was taken, but it's probably in the Quebec City area. CN bought this line around 1950 and ran it for a few years before shutting it down as an electric operation.

Date: 05/01/24 10:09 Re: CN electric Author: train1275 It is a very interesting and obscure image, and hopefully at some point someine can ID the location.
Stuff like the QRL&P, Montreal & Southern Counties, Grand River, L&PS, and other electified lines in Quebec and Ontario have pretty much been off my radar. I'd like to learn more, I did get the old box cabs in Montreal commuter service and happened to be around the last night they ran the box cabs. Edited 2 time(s).
