Last stand for piggyback in Canada. CP 132 and its counterpart CP 133 are the only dedicated 100% piggyback trains remaining in Canada. They run daily from Montreal to Toronto and vice-versa and CP 132 generally enters Montreal before sunrise (westbound CP 133 usually leaves Montreal about 1930 and so is only shootable a few months a year). However delays can lead to late trains of course, and this morning I shot CP 132 at about 0915 in Ste-Anne-de-Bellevue, a suburb at the very western tip of the island of Montreal with CP 8873 and CEFX 1035 as power.
