The January 1998 ice storm had its effect on the commuter line just like everything else with trains cancelled after January 6. According to a notice to passengers partial service was restored on January 19 with full service to Dorion restored on January 22. Service to Rigaud was expected to be returned to normal on Monday, January 26. |
