Which train can I use from Montreal to Quebec?

What do the initials of CSX stand for?
This seems to be a description of an inverted monorail. The cars are suspended from an electrical rail which connects to the traction device on the roof. It is not a very common method of transport.Electrified trains, trams and trolly buses have the conventional method of tractition in this case electric motors and run on rails or by the use of ordinary wheels and tyres. They get their power supply from an overhead electrified gantry connected to the vehicle by a conduction device mounted on the roof of the train, tram or trolley.
