Napanee, Tamworth & Quebec Railway
The Newsletter of the Canadian R.P.O. Study Group (B.N.A.P.S) Volume 37 - No. 4 Whole No. 201 March - April, 2009 The Napanee, Tamworth & Quebec Railway was incorporated in 1879, to build from Napanee to Renfrew County and the Ottawa Valley. Twenty eight miles of line between Napanee and Tamworth, via Yarker, were completed on August 4, 1884. The first railway post office cancellation used (O-175) is reported as early as February 16, 1886. In 1889, the line was extended another 20 miles northward, from Tamworth to Tweed, where it connected with the Montreal-Toronto C.P.Ry. main line. A seven mile branch, eastward from Yarker to Harrowsmith and a connection there to the Kingston & Pembroke Railway were also completed. Run- ning rights over the track of the K. & P. Ry, between Harrowsmith and Kingston, were granted to N.T. & Q. Ry. trains February 9, 1889. In 1890, the Tweed-Kingston R.P.O. (O-423) was established. On April 24, 1890, the name of the railway was changed to the Kingston, Napanee & Western Rail- way. A four mile eastward extension, from Harrowsmith to Sydenham, opened November 2, 1893. On January 1, 1897, the railway amalgamated with the Bay of Quinte Railway and Navigation Company that ran between Deseronto and Napanee, to form the Bay of Quinte Railway. A 20 mile extension northward, from Tweed to Bannockburn, where it connected with the Central Ontario Railway, was completed December 21, 1903. On June 1, 1910, Mackenzie & Mann of the Canadian Northern Railway assumed control. With the inauguration of through service between Ottawa and Toronto on June 5, 1914, the Bay of Quinte Railway Deseronto-Sydenham line became a link in the Canadian Northern Railway’s Toronto-Ottawa main line. -

Tillitson collection on railroads creator: Tillitson, George E. Identifier/Call Number: M0165 Physical Description: 50.5 Linear Feet(9 cartons and 99 manuscript storage boxes) Date (inclusive): 1880-1959 Abstract: Notes on the history of railroads in the United States and Canada. Conditions Governing Access The collection is open for research. Note that material is stored off-site and must be requested at least 36 hours in advance of intended use. Provenance Gift of George E. Tillitson, 1955. Special Notes One very useful feature of the material is further described in the two attached pages. This is the carefully annotated study of a good many of the important large railroads of the United States complete within their own files, these to be found within the official state of incorporation. Here will be included page references to the frequently huge number of small short-line roads that usually wound up by being “taken in” to the larger and expending Class II and I roads. Some of these files, such as the New York Central or the Pennsylvania Railroad are very big themselves. Michigan, Wisconsin, Oregon, and Washington are large because the many lumber railroads have been extensively studied out. -

A Concise History of Canada
A Concise History of Canada Margaret Conrad’s history of Canada begins with a challenge to its readers. What is Canada? What makes up this diverse, complex, and often contested nation-state? What was its founding moment? And who are its people? Drawing on her many years of experi- ence as a scholar, writer, and teacher of Canadian history, Conrad offers astute answers to these difficult questions. Beginning in Canada’s deep past with the arrival of its Aboriginal peoples, she traces its history through the conquest by Europeans, the American Revolutionary War, and the industrialization of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, to its prosperous present. As a social historian, Conrad emphasizes the peoples’ history: the relationships between Aboriginal and settler, French and English, Catholic and Protestant, and rich and poor. She writes of the impact of disease, how women fared in the early colonies, and the social transformations that took place after the Second World War as Canada began to assert itself as an independent nation. It is this grounded approach that drives the narrative and makes for compelling reading. In the last chapter, the author explains the social, economic, and political upheavals that have transformed the nation over the last three decades. Despite its successes and its popularity as a destination for immigrants from across the world, Canada remains a curiously reluctant player on the international stage. This intelligent, concise, and lucid book explains just why that is. Margaret Conrad is Professor Emerita at the University of New Brunswick in Canada. Her publications include Atlantic Canada: A History, with James K. -
