I believe the most direct rail connection >from New York City to Montreal
would have crossed the border at Rousses Point, NY. My grandfather went

from Montreal to New York City along that route in 1899, and passenger

trains still follow that route today.

On another page at the Library and Archives Canada (formerly National
