  3. The tunnel I'm most familiar with is the Mount Royal Tunnel in Montreal, built by the Canadian Northern Railway from 1912-1918. That gave CNoR access to downtown Montreal, but bankrupted the company , which became part of CN. Central Station, opened in 1943, is adjacent to the site of the former CNoR Tunnel Terminal, which was demolished in 1952 to make way for the CN HQ building, opened in 1961. Since its opening, the tunnel served mainly commuter trains for 102 years before being closed at the end of 2020. It's now being rebuilt for the new REM system, due to open in 2022; that work includes the addition of 2 whole new stations. You may have seen some of it on the Quebec part of your trip.

  4. Revelstoke also gave CP a CEO: Norris Roy "Buck" Crump was born there in 1904. He's best remembered as CP's "Mr. Diesel" who put steam out to pasture on his watch as CEO, 1955-1974. He was the last real railroader to head CP, having started as a laborer in the Revelstoke shops.
