I was asking a few months back about CNR records and contacted the company to determine if they kept records of significant events and which employees were involved. Their reply was: Thank you for contacting the CN Website. The records have been sent to the National Archives in Ottawa. The phone number is 613-995-5138 and the e-mail address is: reference@archives.ca Regards, Lorraine Fredette, CN Public Inquiries Line Hope this may be of help to people.
