We are in the yard at Coteau, a junction just to the west of Montreal. Coteau Junction is the location where the line to Ottawa veers off the mainline between Montreal and Toronto. Another line arrives Coteau from the south which crosses the St. Lawrence River into the United States.
Suffice it to say that Coteau can be a very busy place.
The local crew is using this trio of locomotives to switch the yard.
Looking south and east we see the big curve in the tracks.
Lots of blocking of traffic was done in the short time we remained on site.
The crew entertained us very well.
Have a great day! Mike Hamer
