A double-ended car, 2600, is at Summit Loop on Mount Royal, Montreal's namesake mountain.
Two lines served the mountain park — the 11 Mountain line from the east, which left from the Park and Mont Royal loop,
and the short 93 Remembrance route that served it from the west at Côté-des-Neiges and Remembrance Road.
Cars running on the 93 line had to be double-ended to use a crossover at the west end of the route.
Although a double wye was available at Remembrance and Côté-des-Neiges,
it wasn't used because there was too much traffic with automobiles and other streetcars using Côté-des-Neiges.
