DescriptionThe railway runs for {{convert|43|km|mi|abbr=on}} from the port of Havre-Saint-Pierre on the north shore of the Saint Lawrence River inland to a massive ilmenite (titanium iron) deposit at Lac-Allard. At Havre-Saint-Pierre, the mineral is loaded aboard bulk carriers and shipped upriver to the port of Sorel-Tracy. COGEMA also operates car floats that connect with the line.[1] QIT also operates passenger trains for workers, as the mine is not accessible by road.[2] The Romaine River Railway began operating in 1949 and is owned and operated by QIT-Fer et Titane, which is a subdivision of the Anglo-Australian company Rio Tinto Group.[3] References1. ^Trains (Magazine) February 2009 p9 2. ^{{cite journal |url=http://www.bytownrailwaysociety.ca/phocadownload/branchline/2006/2006-12.pdf |journal=Branchline |title=Quebec's North Shore Railways |pages=3–6 |last=Kimmons |first=Brian |date=December 2006 |volume=45 |issue=11}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.riotinto.com/canada/rio-tinto-fer-et-titane-14778.aspx |title=Rio Tinto Fer et Titane |accessdate=November 21, 2016 |publisher=RioTinto}} External links
