The classic CP signal gantry just east of the Dorval station made a great prop, as we see with eastbound train 26 and an FP 7. |

Pushing 17 |
| Description: |
The usual FP 7 is pushing train 17 at Beaconsfield. In the late 80s, STCUM rebuilt many of their stations, replacing the ancient CP facilities they inherited with the service. While this removed some venerable old CP stations, the commuting experience was greatly improved for the daily rider. |

Pushing into the sun |
| Description: |
The couple of days I was in the Montreal area were mostly cloudy and rainy, but now and then the sun would poke out. This FP 7 pushes an STCUM commuter train into the few rays of sun for the day as it heads for Dorion. |

Passenger meet |
| Description: |
VIA 37 and an eastbound commuter train on the CP meet at Dorval station. This was a common occurrence, as there was frequent traffic on both lines. The trick was to be in the right spot when the meet happened. |
