Default Repat.

Kinda makes sense - the St Lawerence would have been mighty frozen by then and the train system from the East coast could have been working to it's limits.

Also - Why tie up a resource like The QE plodding up a river when it's best used in a straight line on the open ocean?

I knew a wounded officer that was headed back to UK through NY as the war ended.

Never thought about this much before - thanks..
