What became of the Montreal Electrics

  by Tadman
 
What happened to the original Mt. Royal electrics and 1950's MUs? I'm an electric railroad sucker, and I hate to see them cut up.

Of the original six (built 1914-1917) GE boxcabs, five have been preserved somewhere in North America. All of the other electric locomotives were scrapped.

Many of the MUs were sold to tourist railways in Conway NH and Stettler AB.
