Hello,
I am looking for a list of Quebec highway numbers before the 1970s renumbering (or a map, etc etc). More specifically, I am looking for what QC155 was between Trois-Rivieres and Chambord. Does anybody have a resource like this?
Thanks!
You can find a list of pre-1975 route numbers here:

And a 1941 highway map can be downloaded from the Quebec Archives:

But to answer your question, it looks like R-155 used to be Route 19.
I resurrect this old topic to say that according to Wikipedia, the highway between La Tuque and Lac-Bouchette (close to Chambord) was officially open in 1966.
