    15914-13 MacDonald Research 5/9/06 3:02 PM Page 158 RESEARCH NOTE/NOTES DE RECHERCHE Railway Tourism in the “Land of Evangeline”, 1882-1946 IN 1847 HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW wrote a poem purportedly based on a story he had heard of an Acadian girl and her betrothed who had endured the Acadian Deportation from Nova Scotia almost a century earlier. The publication of Evangeline: A Tale of Acadie quickly gained the American poet international acclaim. The work sparked interest in the region as a vacation destination, especially among New Englanders, and promoters were soon exploiting the tale of unrequited love and lost homeland in order to draw tourists. Particularly active in this regard was the Windsor and Annapolis Railway Company (W&AR), incorporated in 1867 and later reinvented as the Dominion Atlantic Railway Company (DAR).1 Among the earliest organized efforts to promote tourism in Nova Scotia, its colourful and evocative “Land of Evangeline” publicity beckoned tourists to Grand-Pré and its surroundings with the promise of a nostalgic step back in time. Most of this output took the form of timetables, brochures and guide books, some of which were authored by prominent writers and historians who expounded the merits of the landscape and its connection to the Acadian past. These promotional materials reveal as much about the social and cultural context of their creation as they do about 18th-century Acadian life. Examination of the railway’s more prominent texts and images, as well as some of the factors that influenced their production, shows how they worked to both reflect and shape contemporary understanding and attitudes about the Acadian experience.

Study Group (B.N.A.P.S) Volume 33 - No. 2 Whole No. 175 November - December, 2004 Tottenham, Ontario, circa 1916 In the previous issue we looked at the cancellations which were used on the Ontario, Simcoe & Huron Railroad and its successor lines, the Northern Railway and branches and the Northern & North West- ern Railway, up to their absorption into the Grand Trunk Railway in 1888. In this issue, we continue the study with an examination of the postmarks from the Hamilton & Lake Erie Railway and the Hamilton & North Western Railway, which became part of the Northern & North Western Railway system in 1881. Robert Smith sends us information about a cover from his collection with a straight line marking. The cover was water damaged in the wreck of the International Limited, which occurred near Beachville, Ontario on April 26, 1937. Brian Stalker has written a tribute to Lionel F.

  • Black Transportation Workers and Their Families in Halifax, C.1870-1916
    JUDITH FINGARD From Sea to Rail: Black Transportation Workers and Their Families in Halifax, c.1870-1916 IN TURN-OF-THE-20TH CENTURY HALIFAX, a city dependent for its livelihood on the sea and, after nationalization, on rail links to the interior, male workers found ready employment in the transportation industries. According to the city directories, between 250 and 350 men were employed in seafaring jobs in the 1890s and 1900s, and the 1911 federal census reported 458 or 3.4 per cent of male workers as seafarers, i The number of men involved in railway work quadrupled between the mid-1890s and 1911, by which time 1150 men, representing 8.6 per cent of the male workforce were so employed.2 Among the transportation workers could be found men of African origin whose employment was concentrated in specific job categories. Those resident in Halifax worked principally as stewards and cooks in shipping or as porters, waiters or cooks for the railways. Black workers constituted a small minority of the men employed in the transportation industries and, together with their families and other "people of colour", comprised only a tiny proportion of the total population of Halifax: about three per cent in 1881 and two per cent in the early 20th century. None the less, in the days when the shipping industry was at its height, more blacks were enumerated in the censuses as seafarers than any other single category of worker save labourer, and other sources indicate that many of the labourers were themselves members of the casual seafaring workforce.

Sharp The year since the last report (Newsletter 108) has seen the most radical changes in Canadian passenger timetables since pooling of the Montreal - Toronto services. Each road has broken away from the traditional convoy pattern of transcontinental service by introducing new “fast” trains which average better than 40 M.P.H. coast to coast and made substantial improvements on its Maritime main line. While the C.N.R. continues its ruthless pruning of secondary passenger services, apparently regardless of potential traffic, the Canadian Pacific has made some imaginative applications of RDC cars to provide local service at speeds up to 60 M.P.H. Since the schedules of the C.P.R.’s “Canadian” and the C.N.R.’s “Super-Continental” have been discussed previously in the Newsletter, this report will be concerned mainly with the secondary services. CANADIAN PACIFIC RAILWAY Introduction of the “Canadian” in April as trains 1 and 2, (the Toronto connections are trains 11 and 12), necessitated renumbering of Montreal - Vancouver locals 1 and 2 as 17 and 18, the Kettle Valley trains 11 and 12 as 67 and 68, and the Sudbury - Sault Ste.
