Quebec, Montmorency and Charlevoix Railway Co. incorporated in 1881. Route established from Quebec City through Montmorency Falls to Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupre. Name changed to QRL&P in 1899. Line operated as the Montmorency Division of the QRL&P and reported separately from city (Citadel Division) operations. (Ref. 2) Quebec Railway Light & Power Railway (QRL&P) was a small interurban railway line incorporated in 1881. Between late 1890s- late 1950s, the QRL&P was one of the longer interurban lines in the country. A railway line ran from rue St-Paul in Quebec City to Cap Tourmente, via Ste-Anne de Beaupre. (Ref. 1)

Technical

USED TO INFORM THE TRAIN EMPLOYEES THE TIMES OF TRAIN ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES BETWEEN QUEBEC CITY AND ST. JOACHIM, P.Q. ON THE QUEBEC RAILWAY LIGHT AND POWER CO. TRAINS, EFFECTIVE MONDAY SEPT. 11, 1922. EMPLOYEE TIMETABLES PROVIDE DETAILED OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS TO EMPLOYEES; DESCRIPTIONS OF OPERATING CONDITIONS ALONG SPECIFIC LINES; AND A LISTING OF ALL SCHEDULED TRAINS (BOTH FREIGHT, MIXED AND PASSENGER). THE LATTER IS IMPORTANT AS PUBLIC TIMETABLES WILL PROVIDE ONLY ENOUGH INFORMATION AS NECESSARY TO POTENTIAL PASSENGERS IE) THE ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE TIMES OF PASSENGER TRAINS. EMPLOYEE TIMETABLES OFFER INSIGHT INTO THE INTRICACIES OF RAILWAY OPERATIONS ON A SPECIFIC DIVISION OR SUB-DIVISION. BECAUSE EMPLOYEES WERE REQUIRED TO DESTROY EMPLOYEE TIMETABLES AFTER THEIR EXPIRY DATE IN ORDER TO PREVENT CONFUSION, THESE DOCUMENTS ARE RELATIVELY RARE. (REF. 1)
