Talk:Mount Royal Tunnel

Intresting
This article is very interesting. I got here from "random article." I wonder if anyone lives by the tunnel and is reading this that might be able to provide an image or two? Hipocrite (talk) 19:57, 14 December 2009 (UTC)

Dead link
After X number of days the electronic editions of the Montreal Gazette become no longer available. A more permanent reference needs to be found for Mount Royal Tunnel. Peter Horn.2 (talk) 23:45, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
 * While it's nice to have online sources, it is not a requirement. There is nothing wrong with having a full reference to a newspaper article that is not online. Unfortunately the Gazette references were not properly cited. We don't know the date of either article, and for one we don't even know the author. I've added a CN media release to cover some of the missing material. Meters (talk) 03:45, 17 May 2016 (UTC)

The structure gauge
A structure gauge of 14 ft was too low for the former rolling stock. the coaches were 14 ft, not to mention the pantograph and the electrification. About 16 ft at the tracks would be more like it. Peter Horn User talk 01:35, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Where did you get the 14 ft? That was the loading gauge Peter Horn User talk 00:45, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
 * See Template talk:Infobox tunnel Peter Horn User talk 01:22, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
 * @Peter Horn, I do not remember adding that to the article, but I have found the edit where I did so, 5 years ago. The measurement was already in the article at that time, second paragraph of the lead section, and called "structure gauge", so I only copied it from that section to the infobox that I added. I admit I was fuzzy on the difference between structure and loading gauge until now, and I probably did not check the referenced source for the measurement when I added the infobox. Thank you for finding and correcting this error. Indefatigable (talk) 02:45, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
 * @Indefatigable By now the reconstruction of the Réseau express métropolitain has reduced the structure gauge making it impossible for Via Rail to use the tunnel. Peter Horn User talk 23:48, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
