Central Station (Montreal) - U.S. Preclearance

U.S. Preclearance

In May 2012, U.S. Senators Charles Schumer, Kirsten Gillibrand, Patrick Leahy, and Bernie Sanders sent a letter to President Barack Obama urging him to fastrack the approval of a preclearance facility at the station that will benefit U.S. bound travelers on the Adirondack from having to stop at the railway station located in Rouses Point, New York for immigration and customs checks whenever they cross the U.S.-Canadian border. Under the arrangement, the stop in Saint-Lambert would be removed.
