About
The Bordeaux Railway Bridge is on the Canadian Pacific Kansas City line across the Rivière des Prairies between Ahuntsic-Cartierville (on Montreal Island) and Laval-des-Rapides (on Île Jésus) in Quebec, Canada. This railway bridge is used by freight trains of Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC), the Chemins de Fer Québec-Gatineau (CFQG) and by Exo's Saint-Jérôme line. A four-rail gauntlet track is used because the horizontal structure gauge is not sufficiently wide for a regular double track. A bicycle/pedestrian bridge is cantilevered on the upstream (west) side of this bridge.
