Trouten headed home the first after 13 minutes from close range, knocking in Weatherston's cross from close range. Queen's were finally adjusting to the swirling wind in the second half when Trouten was fouled by Cameron Bell in the Montrose box.
Trouts picked himself up and slid the penalty toward Bell in the Mo' goal who despite getting a hand on the ball couldn't keep it out after hitting his knee off the post on the way down.
Montrose were reduced to ten man when Hugh Davidson fouled Paul Paton and picked up his second booking with 4 minutes left.
