  • 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.

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.
