    ________________________________________________________________________________________________ THE WCR PRESS ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Issue No. 11 – Wednesday, March 17, 2021 ELEVENTH EDITION Happy St. Patrick’s Day. This Edition of the WCR Press opens 2021 with the hope that wide distribution of the COVID- 19 vaccine will allow us to resume passenger service by the end of this summer or early fall. We have developed an opening plan and new schedule so that when circumstances permit, service may commence immediately. The St. Jacobs Restoration and Maintenance Facility has remained open on a limited basis for some restoration projects and on-going equipment safety related maintenance in anticipation of when we start operations again. Although wide ranging in topics and photos, this Edition has a winter element to it. Recently two beautiful February days afforded us the opportunity for future winter promotional photos and videos. This was led by our Assistant General Manager Greg McDonnell along with videographers graciously supplied by Waterloo Region Tourism and Marketing Corporation capturing these winter images. “We took our time working south, stopping wherever photographic opportunities presented themselves. And if we started the day with the quintessential Woolwich Township lunch, we ended it with the consummate image of winter in Canada. The Conestogo River bridge in St. Jacobs spans not just the river but the millrace to the old flour mill downtown. When we were switching to build the train yesterday, I noticed as we pulled onto the bridge for head room that the mill race was frozen over and shoveled clean for skating as far as you could see. What if, I wondered.

  • Cro April Canadian National
    CRO APRIL CANADIAN NATIONAL Loaded rail train U780 is seen on the CN Waukesha Sub ducking under the UP bridge (Former CNW Adams Line) at Sussex, Wisconsin. This US Steel unit rail train for Gary, Indiana was photographed by William Beecher Jr. on March 11th. http://www.canadianrailwayobservations.com/2011/apr11/cn2242wb.htm Joe Ferguson clicked CN C40-8W 2145 in BNSF paint with CN “Noodle”, in Du Quoin, IL and CN 2146 fresh from the paint shop at Centralia on March 1st 2011. http://www.canadianrailwayobservations.com/2011/apr11/cn2146joeferguson.htm CN C40-8 2148, (which had been heavy bad-ordered at Woodcrest since received from BNSF), finally entered service February 27th sporting full CN livery. As seen in the photo, prior to her Woodcrest repaint, CN 2148 was one of the better looking ex-BNSF units still in the warbonnet paint. She now sports the thick CN cab numbers, gold Scotchlite and the web address tight to the CN Noodle. Larry Amaloo snapped the loco working in Kirk Yard just after her release. http://www.canadianrailwayobservations.com/2011/apr11/cn2148larryamaloo.htm Rob Smith took this shot of CN 2141 leading train 392 as it passes 385 on the adjacent track in Brantford, ON, January 24th. CN 2141 is significant as it was the first of the former ATSF/BNSF C40-8W’s to be repainted at Woodcrest Shop. On March 3rd CN 2141 was noted at the SOO/CP Humboldt Yard. http://www.canadianrailwayobservations.com/2011/apr11/cn2141robertsmith.htm On March 4th George Redmond clicked CN C40-8W 2138 at Centralia in fresh paint, looking like a model with no windshield wipers and detail.

  • PREFACE to 1895 EDITION, OUTLINE of CONTENTS and INDEX to COMPANIES LISTED in 1895 (PDF File
    PREFACE TO 1895 EDITION, OUTLINE OF CONTENTS & INDEX TO COMPANIES LISTED IN 1895 By 1895 the Stock Exchange Official Yearbook had settled into a format that it was to stay with for the duration. We reproduce the Preface, Outline of Contents and the Index to companies listed in 1895 to give readers an idea of the typical organisation of a yearbook, and of the great variety of companies covered in this and in future volumes. PREFACE. The year 1894 has not proved so favourable to business as was expected. This is chiefly due to the further considerable decline in the prices of natural products, and to some extent to the difficulty in bringing to a conclusion the tariff and other reforms in the United States to which President Cleveland had put his hand. But the year closes with a nearly complete absence of disturbing causes, though the prices of produce are still at their lowest, and the return to commercial and agricultural prosperity is in all parts of the world proceeding at an abnormally slow rate. But it is generally admitted that the worst is now more than over. This is an immense gain in itself, especially as regards Stock Exchange securities, amongst which selling from fear or necessity no sooner ceases than an upward movement on some scale sets in. A year ago we had to report a further considerable fall in the aggregate of Stock Exchange values; but for 1894 there has been a rise in prices which more than outsets the decline then reported, and to all appearance the upward movement is still in progress.

  • (Title of the Thesis)*
    Property size preferences and the value of private and public outdoor spaces amid a shift to high-density residential development: A case study of Kitchener- Waterloo, Ontario by Emma DeFields A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Environmental Studies in Planning Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2013 ©Emma DeFields 2013 AUTHOR'S DECLARATION I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract Planning policies in Ontario, such as the Provincial Policy Statement and the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, enforce urban growth boundaries to preserve natural and agricultural lands while improving neighbourhood and city vibrancy. Consequently, urban areas must be intensified through high-density development, which will limit the land available for public green spaces and large private yards. As a result, homebuyers looking for spacious properties will have to rely mainly on the turnover of older homes. Therefore, this thesis explores how residents currently living in homes with private yards value private and public outdoor space, and whether they have interest in upsizing or downsizing their homes in the future. Neighbourhood and property attributes that may be influential in homebuyer decision-making are also investigated. The cities of Kitchener and Waterloo (“Kitchener-Waterloo”) were chosen as the study location, as both cities are affected by the Growth Plan and are currently being intensified.

Updated January 2021 Alliston In 1847 British immigrant William Fletcher settled and built a mill on the Boyne River around which the Town of Alliston eventually developed. The Memorial Library was opened in 1924 by Sir Frederick Banting, who was born and raised in Alliston and won the Nobel Prize in 1923 as co-discoverer of insulin. The establishment of Stevenson Memorial Hospital in 1928 was made possible by donations from grocery store founder Theodore Pringle Loblaw who named the hospital for his grandparents. The area of present-day Riverdale Park and Museum on the Boyne was home to the fairgrounds and a racetrack and has been the focal point of many community activities for more than a century. Museum on the Boyne 250 Fletcher Cres, Alliston The museum was originally built in 1914, as the women’s exhibit hall for the Alliston Fair. Where you see Riverdale Park now is where the fairgrounds were. The building continued to be used for the Agricultural Fair until the 1940s. In the 1930s the Lion’s club installed the wooden floor you see today and the Museum on the Boyne Collection building was used as a dance hall. During WWII it was used by the Dorothea Knitting Mill, which hired local women to knit The Museum scarves for the war movement. turned 60 in In 1960 it became the South 2020!
