I got into railway history too late and cannot find the date(s) of abandonment for the old Canadian Northern line that ran from Hawkesbury into Quebec, through St-Andre-L'Est and St-Jerome and on to Quebec City. Could anyone provide an answer(s) for me on this route? Thanks
Hi There, April 16th/2000. Re Hawkesbury to St Jerome Line. I used to live in Montreal, Quebec. The Bridge across the Ottawa River came out when a Dam was built in the 60s some time. The link on the Quebec side lasted till sometime in the middle 70s but am not to sure or the late 70s, It was abondoned B 4 the 80s. The line Connected with the Two Mountains line just north of that point. I still have time tables on those Subdivisions in Storage so will have to get more information at a later date. I was lucky to B able to ride a Psgr Extra on those line B 4 Abondonment. Hope it helps for now. Andrew, grandtrunkent@railwayPO.net ------------------ Best Regards, Andrew, Calgay
