Built for local delivery and pick-up of freight, in carload lots or less, the 92 trucks fcrm a rapid and steady stream of communication between the Canadian Pacific freight sheds in Montreal and the city's shippers. By eliminating much of the handling of freight and instilling the Canadian Pacific motto for fast service into this end of freight traffic, the new trucks are speeding up the service to a degree previously unknown. Although this service has also been introduced to Ottawa and Sherbrooke, Montreal will be the main testing grounds. Illustrations above show a section of the line of trucks at Place Viger freight sheds in Montreal, of the trucks being loaded from the warehouse, a loaded truck on its way to the door of some business house.
