    INCORPORATED 1952 NUMBER 444 OCTOBER 1986 UPPER CANADA RAILWAY SOCIETY BOX 122 STATION "A" TORONTO, ONTARIO S&H 1009, ex-CNR 1009, after rebuilding and repainting at Hillsborough shop, April 19, 1986. S&H RSI 8208 leads a two-car train comprising a heavy• weight coach and a former CN arch roof car built in the mid-1930s (5200 series). OCTOBER 1986 3 Tourist Train Excursions sixum AN JMJKSBOKOIJGI l startup and History The origins of this tourist railroad in central New Brunswick lie in a combination of three major events: the closure of the Canadian Gypsum Co. wallboard plant in Hillsborough in 1980; the application by CN to abandon the 24 mile branch (the Albert Sub.) serving the plant; and the existence of a strong and determined rail buff group in the province. The closure of the wallboard plant, during a time of severe economic recession, led to the purchase of all of the gypsum company property by the Community Improvement Corporation in the name of the Province of New Brunswick, with a view to creating some employment opportunitles_.__I)uring this time, and even up until this day, CN in this area has been very co-operative in the attempt to create these opportunities, since the railway was facing major layoffs at the same time. The Federal Goyemment,^ through the Local Employment Assistance Program (LEAP), was also receptive to worthwhile proposals. With the groundwork laid and the existence of the Canadian Railroad Historical Association museum in Delson, Quebec providing a good supply of suitable steam locomotives and passenger cars, the work started.

    Form Revised: February 2005 TORONTO TRANSIT COMMISSION REPORT NO. MEETING DATE: May 1, 2012 SUBJECT: LRT PROJECTS IN TORONTO - STATUS REPORT INFORMATION ITEM RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Commission receive this report for information. FUNDING This report does not have direct funding implications for the TTC. BACKGROUND The Province of Ontario and Metrolinx have committed $8.4 billion to new transit in Toronto. In 2007, the Commission adopted a plan for light rail transit (LRT) lines to provide faster, more reliable, accessible transit on the busiest, most congested corridors in Toronto, and directed staff to commence the preliminary planning and environmental assessments for the projects. In November 2008, Metrolinx adopted the Big Move Transportation Plan for the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area. The Big Move top 15 priority projects for early implementation included the Sheppard East LRT, Finch West LRT, Eglinton Crosstown LRT and the Scarborough RT. In May and April 2009, the Province of Ontario announced funding for the Eglinton Crosstown LRT, Scarborough RT conversion and extension, Finch West LRT and, with a federal contribution, Sheppard East LRT. Also in early 2009, the Province of Ontario amended the Metrolinx Act 2006 bringing into force provisions for Metrolinx to own and control transit projects and be responsible for decisions regarding scope, budget, schedule and delivery. Metrolinx, TTC and the City of Toronto developed a governance structure for the transit project implementation whereby TTC would deliver the projects on behalf of Metrolinx. An Interim Funding Memorandum of Agreement provided Metrolinx funding to the TTC to carry on with the project LRT PROJECTS IN TORONTO – STATUS REPORT Page 2 implementation with Metrolinx responsible for award of contracts and payment to consultants, the TTC staff working on the project and contractors.

  • Toronto's Transit Expansion Program
    EX4.1 ATTACHMENT 2 LINE 2 EAST EXTENSION Introduction After more than 30 years of service, the vehicles that run on Line 3 Scarborough are reaching the end of their normal lifespan. An integrated and comprehensive rapid transit system is required to continue to provide transit that benefits users in Scarborough and across Toronto. In October 2013, City Council approved a full funding commitment to a proposal to extend the TTC Line 2 subway along the McCowan Road corridor to Sheppard Avenue East. Since 2013, the Line 2 East Extension ("L2EE") project has advanced through the project lifecycle, and several reports have been brought forward to the TTC Board and City Council for consideration and approval to confirm the project scope, preferred alignment, procurement model, and integration with broader city planning Figure 1. objectives. Line 2 East Extension Overview The last report on the project was in March 20171 at which point City Council approved an extension from Kennedy Station to Scarborough Centre via the McCowan alignment. Per City Council direction, the project scope also includes coordination with future transit and road infrastructure projects as well as other city-building initiatives planned for Scarborough Centre. The L2EE project is now ready to proceed to procurement and construction. A Class 3 cost estimate, Level 3 schedule and risk analysis have been prepared and the results are documented in this attachment. Consistent with the recommendations of the TTC Capital Program Delivery Review,2 the project has conducted a formal detailed risk assessment, resulting in risk-adjusted estimates that better capture potential delays and costs.
