Welllllllll Harrison, thank you for pulling me out from underneath the rock I've been. I was born and raised on the west island of Montreal and wasn't aware a museum like this existed. Thank you for sharing your trip! I will definately be going there when I'm in Montreal in the fall. Take care. Sean.

Also, the open top street cars ran up the Mount Royal to the lookout and the old tracks are paved over on Camillion Houde Street, that goes over the mountain.

The Metro car is an older MR63 Zmodel, and it wss good to see a Canadian Vickers bilevel car there, EXO recently sold all the rest for scrap. Comming soon, the AMT MR90s from the Deux Montagnes line, all are currently motored at the EXO shops in Pointe St Charles.

Awesome video! I also caught Q137 @ Baltimore yards & it had a ST70AH trailing.

4:32 The locomotive next to the steam engine is a Alco rs3

En 1908 la SNCF n exister pas encore.( la compagnie de l Ouest et le PO [Paris Orléans ] se partager la gare) La locomotive a été affrété au depot de chateabriant, a 1 heure de Nantes.

2:40 the Titusville oil creek and railroad operates this locomotive for excursions. It runs like a beauty. She has power.

You should go to Horseshoe Curve. Altoona Pennsylvania. Great and historical place. I've been there before and its awesome! There's a store. And old engine up there. And a museum . And near there is a place called Cassandra Overlook. Its a place where you can chill and watch the trains go bye. And theres a bridge that goes RIGHTTT over the train and you can feel the exhaust and wind. Its awesome. You should do that for a video someday!

What a nice looking musuem. It also was good to see all the guys and you having a good time. This is one place I would love to visit.

Delson is an amazing museum, surprised they moved the Dominion of Canada to the secondary shed, use to be beside 2850. Great video as always Harrison!

What a wonderful video. If I am ever in Canada close to this museum I will visit it. Thanks for all of your wonderful videos!

The National Railway Museum in York (coincidentally, the place where Dominion of Canada went in 2012) has an exhibit where you can go underneath Great Western Railway number 4003 "Lode Star".

Thanks for sharing your trip with all of us. I went there around 2000 with fellow members of a local model railroad club. We had a great time. Of course there’s more displays today.

13:45 i’m sorry I keep posting comments but in Pennsylvania there’s a railroad museum right across the street from the Strasburg railroad you can actually go under one of the steam engines

Awesome vid!! this museum has the best collection of Canadian steam!!

I live about 20 minutes off of this museum and it is by far my favorite place to go! Also the fact that is is in constant motion, means that no 2 visite will be the same!

The yellow RS n.20 was build in Montreal in 1949 and send to the Roberval Saguenay Railroad! It was send back to MTL to the museum after longs years of service!

I spit my drink out when you said "Light Rapid Crappy"

A very nice video of a beautiful Museum. Hello from Alberta. Thanks for posting the video.

Great tour. It’s been a few years since I was last there, been there several times as I only live a little over an hour to the south in NY.

Someday if you ever come to the USA, You should come over to IRM (Illinois Railway Museum) In Union, IL! That museum is SO HUGE! I want to go there someday.

That looks like an awesome place! You should definitely come out to the Illinois Railway Museum one day. You'll have a blast at IRM!

You put a big smile in my face with this video.

I haven’t been there since spring 2013. Kinda interesting but the track and cobble stone near the street cars was actually uncovered by the city of Montreal and donated around 2010 and was about to be laid down in the museum

Interesting museum they got over there, quite like the layout and everything of it. Also, doing some quick research shows that the FM trainmaster there is the only H-24-66 Trainmaster preserved intact in the world, a really special piece there.

wow that trip looks like a lot of fun and i hope i get to visit a railway museum soon

That locomotive Waddon is one of the London, Brighton, And South Coast Railway (LB&SC) Terrier class of 0-6-0's.

Great little tour, thanks for sharing.

What an amazing experience! Great video.

Love to see those Canadian Pacific passenger cars. That boxcar logo is cool as hell.

This was definitely a great trip and really fun! Perfect day for all of it too! And then theres the few end clips with *peak comedy*

1311 is an EMD GP9M. 6765 is an Alco FA2. 6153 has a long version 6-axle Vanderbuilt style tender much like the HO scale 2-10-2 that you have. 1382 is another EMD SW7 or SW1200 series.

It's such a beautiful museum, I go regularly with my family and/or friends during the summer. The museum is a 5 minutes walk from my house, I live right next to the museum.

Very nice! I had the opportunity to see the museum at the Winnipeg Train Station. They had a school car on display. I've heard that museum had to leave due to some sort of expansion. I wasn't happy to hear that. I enjoy your fixing of trains videos.😊

The Pennsylvania railroad museum actually has the same sort of thing where you can go underneath one or their steamers. I’ve been down there. It’s pretty cool. It only goes under one locomotive. How do they get those beams to hold up those heavy locomotives!?

St. Lawrence & Atlantic was formed by Yorkrail to run the ex-Grand Trunk/CN line from Portland ME to Norton and eventually picking up the rest of the line to Sainte-Rosalie. Eventually Genesee & Wyoming took over. CN retired the M420W fleet in 1998; SLA bought a few of them but did not keep them long, reselling them in 2002. This one is probably DOA as it doesn't seem to have moved since the museum got it. AMT 1311 ex-CN 4307 GP9RM donated 8/11 one of four (1310-1313) rebuilt for AMT in 1990. With no HEP capability they ran with the generator cars as is coupled to this one. The yellow MLW RS2 is ex-Robervale & Saquenay, retired 1976 and presumably donated then. CP 7077, S2, first production diesel built by Montreal Locomotive Works, 1948

Hello Harrison, a very impressive video, hope you had a nice time at the museum.

I've been to Exporail too, it's such a wonderful railway museum! AMT 1311 is an ex-CN GP9RM.

Wow, what a great Museum. Too bad I live on the other side of the Atlantic. At 2.07 that looked like an old (c. 1910) Fowler boxcar, which are very rare in HO scale, but apparently CP had about 3,000 of them at one time. I really enjoyed this, and nice to see a real Royal Hudson too, as I have the Rapido HO scale version.

Wow that is a very cool place I love the Old trains amazing video

..............and a great time was guarantied for all ! 👍👍

Soooo cool! I never knew this existed. Thanks for tour and commentary. Now I don’t have to go! You should sell your narration to the museum and you can give self guided tours. Each locomotive could have a QR code and when they scan it they can listen to your history lesson.

Amazing video! I remember when I was young I went to Toronto museum and saw a Baldwin 4-8-4 steam loco with a CP s2 loco.Sure is fun to see these old time locomotives.

what a cool experience!

I used to go to the museum back in the late 70s or early 80s I remember the model train layout was in the basement of the small station house next to the turntable. This was also the entrance to the museum. The museum was much smaller then but many of the locomotives I recognize from this time period

I would spend days in a place like that, taking it all in.

saludos amigo hermoso museo lindas maquinas yautovias

I enjoyed your video very much. Thank you for taking us around with you and showing us some of the museum's treasured pieces. I also enjoyed those two Montreal street cars. I've been a long time member of The Seashore Trolley Museum up in good old Kennebunkport, Maine since 1975. I've ridden that Montreal car at that Museum at least a few times when I've been up there. The ride was quite impressive and quite informative, I might add. Anyways, Thanks again. I look forward to your next video. Until then, take care my friend. Happy Training. 🚇

Those blue and white Montreal Metro cars shown at the 12-minute mark were model M-63 and built by Canadian Vickers. Their original seats had black vinyl padding on them. In subsequent years, however, these were replaced by the all-plastic type seen in this video, presumably due to easier cleaning, wear and tear over the years, and their vulnerability to vandalism of the vinyl. In addition, the original advertisement panels above the windows and doors were unwisely covered by a transparent, flammable material similar to celluloid that caused a serious fire. The single, vertical grab-bars at the ends of each M-63 car were later changed to triple grab-bars in the M-73 and Azure cars.

Aah man I loved visiting that museum, my favorite engine would be Waddon being another engine from across the pond, the engine is part of the LBSC A1X(rebuilt) or A1 class nicknamed The Terrier cause, when it steams it made the noises of a terrier dog.

Wadden is a terrier it is named that because supposedly it makes a barking sound when it runs

As someone who lives in the US I go to the IRM in Illinois and it is super cool to see the Canadian counterpart

Man wish I could see a streamlined Texas, or a Trainmaster. You are a blessed country when it comes to railroad preservation.

I go here every Christmas!

Oh nice ! CP SD-40-2 , C-424 and an FM Trainmaster. Many great loco's , freight and passenger equipment. I could easily spend an entire day here. Cool place and excellent video. 😁👍🇨🇦🚂🚃🚃 And a nice HO layout too.

I don’t think 3569 is operating anymore, as far as my knoladge extends, the Oil Creek & Titusville has the last operating M420

Hey, I'm 60 and would love to ride the scale train. Always keep a part of that little kid in your heart. ENJOY!!!!!

The passage in the tender on the dominiun loco was fot releif driving crews between london and edinborough great videos thanks

That RS-18 is absolutely beautiful

3:12 GP9u 1311 was retired in 2010, and was a CN unit until the 1990s 6:32 Kawasaki Heavy Industries did produce steam locomotives for JNR back in the 1930s and 40s, as well as most of the shinkansen and other multiple units in Japan, as well as cars for many east coast commuter operations. It's the same company that builds motorcycles, robotic arms, ships, aircraft, and construction machinery 7:27 I thought this A4 pacific was in the main hall next to 2850 8:39 Waddon was acquired by Exporail in 1962 when it was still working 90 years later. I would like to see this engine restored to operating conditions someday I would love to visit this museum someday too, maybe on a trip between Tronto and Montreal with a stop in Halifax

Tks!’ Going there this year love trains !!

The Blue cars are from the Montreal Métro, patterned on the Paris Métro. They always run on tires filled with nitrogen on special plate track and the steel wheels are for energency. This type of Métro cars were used for years, starting in1967, replaced by newer types today.

SLQ 3569 is an M420W and was built as CNR 2569 by Montreal Locomotive Works in 1976. She was renumbered to 3569 in 1987 and sold to St. Lawrence & Atlantic where she kept that number and was donated to where you are now..

I, for one, would like to see a representation of one of Delaware & Hudson's passenger trains in that model railroad display case - The Laurentian, The Montreal Limited and The Adirondack (both D&H and Amtrak) served Montreal until Covid 19 suspended the service. Those trains have a long history in Montreal and deserve recognition. They were and continue to be Quebec's only passenger rail link South to New York City. BTW, that Napierville Junction caboose was built in D&H's shops and was assigned to that subsidiary in Canada moving trains back and forth between Montreal and Rouses Point.

HArrison, if you're ever in Los Angeles, let me know and I'll take you to the L.A. Live Steamers for a ride or two around their track. Same type of ride as here, but with a live steam engine usually in the lead. Great fun!!!!

Thanks for the tour!!!!

8:36 Waddon is an LB&SCR A1 class, also called a terrier, 0-6-0T tank engine built for the, aforementioned, London Brighton and south coast railway (LB&SCR for short)

i went there around 2013 as well. i don't remember much as i was really young but i would love to go again.

if only the wakefield train was donated to this museum

Very nice museum, all the pieces looks nice, all the details. This place is giant, keeping this nice is not easy. Love the riding train

Very neat. I wish I could go but at my age I could never do all that walking. I have sat in the cab of 5700 at St. Thomas. Very comfortable. I have a bowser that i modified to duplicate 4100.

A Brit here, delighted for our Canadian bothers to have the glorious Dominion of Canada, but dreadfully sorry to see it shunted away in some shed, what a shame. Glorious and unique locomotive.

Awesome! Lots of cool stuff there.

happy ya filmed as you went through. It may be awhile before I get to see it in person. Elgin Railway Museum is local for us.🚂🇨🇦

Locomotive CN 30, together with little sister CN 40, were used exclusively in the province of Prince Edward Island on the Esst Coast of Canada. They are of Standard Gauge and mostly based inside the CN Charlottetown yard, and switched locally, when required RSC-1 locomotives were used on the road ,and later RS-18; to the end of CN service to the Island. I go back to the 60s and foundation of Exporail, which at that time, was fairly basic.

Very interesting.. Absolutely awesome. You made my day.. I too have visited a railway museum in India. Its still fresh in my memory

The AMT locomotive is A EX CN GP9M

It's great to see some of our British engines.

(3:04) Here is some info. CN Class GC-418a #1311, General Motors GP9u Locomotive built in 1959 as CN 4307, 1990 - Rebuilt and Renumbered STCUM 1311, 1996 - Transferred to AMT

Cool video nice to see both the a4 no. 60010 (4489) 'Dominion of Canada' and the lbscr a1 terrier no. 54 'waddon' is bring looked after in a safe secure museum

If you ever come to the states, consider Monticello in Illinois. They've got some of the rarest locomotives ever produced by EMD.

1311 is most interesting. I couldn’t find much either, and I do a lot of research as I collect and rebuild HO diesels. It’s a GP9U, which I’m sure you already know (and others have said it’s an ex-CN GP9M and the only comment I can find is that it was run only on Candiac Line. Also, hasn’t Rapido Trains done videos from this museum? This is a really cool place and I thank you for showing it to us!

Good videos ☺️☺️

I have seen “Dominion of Canada” famous brother “Mallard” several times at the National Railway Museum at York,UK. I believe the 2013 trip they reunited all the engines of that type. Waddon is an A1 Terrier the same class as Stepney which is both a real engine in preservation and one of the locomotives characters in “Thomas the tank engine”. Lots of great stuff out there.

The British Locomotives were used to transport Canadian troops during WWI and WWII and were made in Canada during those conflicts, look at the maker. Red Green was from Northern Minnesota and that's why he spoke with the accent your friend used, just to let you know and not a complaint.

At another railway museum in Québec, I saw a live steam model of a Big Boy at the same scale as the "ride-on" train.

The Royal Hudson was cool and all, but I had my eye on that CN Hudson. Boy do I have to go see that someday.

Waddon is actually a British terrier locomotive built by the LBSCR and judging by the 54 number plate on the coal bunker, waddon is the engine before Stepney (Bluebell railway main engine).

6:52 there is a Plymouth just like that one, but painted in orange and also says Plymouth, and works at The Henry Ford of American Innovation and Greenfield Village at its Weiser railroad, would suggest the museum and village for a michigan trip, has one of two 2-6-6-6 c&o steams left, A&G 3 Sam Hill, etc.

the Via Rail engine 6309. I took that a long time ago when I was 14 years old. From Vancouver to Toronto that was in 1994. I am 46 years old now. What's funny is most of those trains I have rode on. the blue Metro Car I used to take that to work when I lived in Montreal everyday. The one with the rubber Wheels. I heard they got new ones. I live in Winnipeg now so I haven't been back to those places in a long time. I also travelled on the train when I was 10 years old from Winnipeg to Toronto. And travelling on a train with much different than that is now.

I believe it’s pronounced Wa ddon. Her class is the LBSCR A1/A1X “Terrier”. I have a Hornby model of her and I really ant to go to there to see her and place my model on her front splasher. Glad to know she’s still there and not back home. I hope she never goes back.

Really enjoyed this! Thanks

Cool Lookin Museum.

At 5:53 is Roberval & Saguenay number 20 an Alco RS2 (Roberval Saguenay or RS is a local short line in Quebec own by Rio tinto) The railroad is still operating between Port Alfred and Arvida...it supplies three Aluminium producer in the region of the Saguenay Lac St Jean

So who really bailed you out of the train museum jail for recording the excursion, Harrison? And they let you keep the footage. 😲 Nice work on the narration as a whole. The visit makes me homesick for Steamtown. Thanks for sharing. 👍👍👍

Here is a good question what category does a ho scale snow plow or a snowblower in Train cars or Locomotives?

The steam locomotives and the via f unit are my favorite part of the video

AMT 1311 GP9, was built in the mid-1950s by EMD (Probably London Ontario) for the CNR as Locomotive 4307. AMT retired 1311 on 02/14/2011. CNR 4307 worked out of Duluth. Bu the photos in CNR she is a High Hood..

The definitive book on all mainline locomotives (including history, design specifications etc.), industrial locomotives, preserved rolling stock (including everything at Exporail), coaches, urban rail systems, cabooses, rail mounted cranes, snow fighting equipment, rail service equipment, work service cars, scale test cars, radio frequencies, train numbers, subdivisions (including mileages and method of signalling, and some maps), passenger schedules, signal indications, engine whistle codes, track signs, maps of major railway centres, and reporting marks - are all contained in THE CANADIAN TRACKSIDE GUIDE which is published annually by the Bytown Railway Society in Ottawa. It is THE book for anyone remotely interested in Canadian railways and Canadian trains. Best regards, from London, England. (A Brit that has travelled on every Canadian railway (except Churchill).)

Exporail has been rated as one of the top three railroad museums in the world and is DEFINITELY worth the visit. It's run by the Canadian Railroad Historical Association (my grandfather was one of the founding members). If you have any questions about any of the rolling stock, the best resource is the Canadian Trackside Guide from the Bytown Railway Society. It gives a good overview of all the locomotives and passenger cars in Canada. One thing--you referred to the main building as the Angus Shops. It's the Angus Pavilion, named after Fred Angus, who was one of the key players in the CRHA.
