Cardwell became the label that stuck, the site being central to the a standard gauge line running from Hamilton to Lake Simcoe at AUandale, federal electoral riding of that name. We do not know when either railway skirting along the base of the Niagara Escarpment. At mile 52 its builders first chose to fist Cardwell on its timetable, or establish a flag-stop there, came face-to-face with the TG&B, carried through the newly identified but there can be no doubt that the crossing had symbolic importance from intersecting point on an embankment some ten or twelve feet above the the outset. To stand at Cardwell at this time was to experience the ongoing general terrain. Having gained 120 feet of elevation between Bolton and rivalry between Hamilton and Toronto. Northeast of here the H&NW Mono Road, the TG&B was well on its way up the Caledon mountain, intruded into Toronto's hinterland; to the northwest the TG&B was aimed another 430 feet of climbing before Orangeville. When the construction squarely at Hamilton's inland domain. dust of the encounter had settled, it appears that the H&NW had dug All that changed in December 1881 when the GTR widened the TG&B down a bit, and perhaps the TG&B had lifted up a bit, all presumably at the to standard gauge and suddenly - and as it turned out only briefly - both financial expense of the H&NW. It was standard practice for the newcomer railway lines at Cardwell were of the same gauge and under a single GTR at railway crossings to foot the biU. Five wood trestle spans, totalling 82 feet corporate influence. The Grand Trunk moved swiftly. The Markdale in length, gave the TG&B clearance of 17'I" over the H&NW. Standard reported on December 16,1881, that the TG&B - the old name lingered on - would operate a through coach daily, making a round trip between Owen Sound and Hamilton, via Cardwell and the H&NW. Thus, did the Grand Trunk gain its own access to Owen Sound, jumping-off point for Lake Superior and beyond. This was seven months before the Toronto Globe, on July 10,1882, reported that a union had been consum• mated with the opening of a connecting curve in the northwest quadrant. Cardwell became truly 'Cardwell Junction,' a designation that it would hold for a quarter century. CARDWELL IN ITS BROADER CONTEXT In its early 1880s bid to dominate the southern Ontario railroad scene, the Grand Trunk absorbed a number of lines that reached ports on Lake Huron and Georgian Bay. It became overextended financially by doing this, however, and was forced to draw back elsewhere. Now having access to Georgian Bay timber and trade by way of a new fine to Wiarton, and already having access into CoUingwood by a branch of the H&NW, the TG&B became surplus to GTR needs. The Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR), incorporated in 1881 and seeking roots in eastern Canada, was quick to act. In July 1883 the TG&B through Cardwell was folded into the 2 - 'Caledon,' celebrated double engine of the Fairlie patent, built in 1871 for the Ontario and Quebec Railway, itself part of the emerging CPR system.

Wood platforms totalled about 6,200 square feet, and a stand for milk cans and a WC. or typical railway out• house filled out the scene. The station was divided into four compartments - refreshment room, waiting room, office and baggage room - presumably with many doors opening on both sides. A 1907 GTR building inventory shows that all structures were single storey, frame and recorded as built in 1890. Their identical construction date may represent a concerted effort to replace less adequate facilities at the site. According to the 1894 Rand, McNaUy and Company's Ontario Shippers Guide, Cardwell Junction had a telegraph office and handled shipments for both Canadian Express (GTR) and Dominion Express (CPR). Although the GTR constructed the actual buildings, it was a "joint" station with the costs of maintenance and opera• tion shared by the CPR. The refreshment room is acknowledged by the "Refreshments" symbol displayed in period GTR timetables. It was presumably run solely by the GTR because Cardwell was not listed as a refreshment stop in CPR timeta• bles, in deference to their own lunch room just a few miles to the north in Orangeville.

  • The Credit Valley Railway (CVR) BACKGROUND in 1849, the Province of Canada Passed Loan Interest Legislation That Triggered Canada’S Railway Building Boom
    34 The Credit Valley Railway (CVR) BACKGROUND In 1849, the Province of Canada passed loan interest legislation that triggered Canada’s railway building boom. Unfortunately, in 1851 the Province of Canada enacted further, inter alia, to create a Board of Railway Commis- sioners, one of whose duties was to administer the 1849 loan interest guarantee. The Board required that to obtain the loan interest guarantee benefit, any railway had to build to the 5ft 6in gauge, which came to be known as the "Provincial" or "Broad" Gauge. During this “broad gauge” era of railway development in Upper Canada from 1850 to 1870, one George Laidlaw rose to prominence as an advocate of the economies of the narrow gauge. An emigrant from Scotland, he obtained a position with the Toronto distillery firm of Gooderham & Worts, and persuaded his employers to invest in the nar- row gauge concept in sponsoring feeder lines for their business. Accordingly on March 4, 1868, the Toronto Grey & Bruce (TG&B) and the Toronto & Nipissing (T&N) Railways were chartered to build to the northwest and the north- east of Toronto. By 1865, Laidlaw had become a grain merchant in his own right, and his passion for transportation issues (the benefits of the narrow gauge system in particular) and his involvement with railway projects had come to dominate his career. After inception of the TG&B and the T&N, Laidlaw also became a moving force in the Credit Valley and the Victoria Railways. While the disadvantages of the narrow gauge system had not yet become appar- ent, in the meantime, the 5’6” “Provincial Gauge” was falling economically and politically out of favour.

  • Railway History Chronology
    St. Thomas Railway History Chronology 1834 - The plan for the Great Western Railway (GWR) is conceived. An economic depression delays implementation for several years. 23 October 1847 - Sod-turning commences for the GWR. It becomes the largest system in Southwestern Ontario. 1850s - Surveying for railway lines is conducted in the St. Thomas area by different railroad companies. Among those reported in the St. Thomas Weekly Dispatch are routes to Simcoe and Amherstburg. 1854 - Citizens of St. Thomas are disappointed that the GWR decided to build through London from Windsor to Niagara Falls instead of St. Thomas. St. Thomas’s leading citizens had been campaigning for years for a railway. 1856 - The London and Port Stanley Railway (L&PS) is inaugurated. Though it was initially supported by St. Thomas, it turned out to be a financial disaster, as St. Thomas merchants lost customers to London. The city purchased shares in the company for $125,000.00 a piece and later sold them to the City of London, who owned the line, for $25,000.00 per share. 1868 - The Erie and Niagara Extension Railway is chartered and the following year it is renamed the Canada Southern Railway (CASO). Late 1860’s - William A. Thomson rallies support for the CASO run between Amherstburg and Fort Erie to connect to St. Thomas. He is successful. 1871 - The CASO Station is built in anticipation of the railroad’s arrival the following year. It still stands today. 1872- The GWR, afraid of losing traffic to the CASO, constructed a rival St. Thomas to Glencoe line, thereby affording St.

  • 1871 Credit Valley Railway 1883
    1871 Credit Valley Railway 1883 Chapter 4: Credit Valley Railway The Credit Valley Railway Company was chartered on February 15, 1871, (34 Vic. Cap 38) to build a railway from "Toronto to Orangeville via the Credit River valley and Streetsville with branches to Galt, Berlin, Waterloo, etc.,". Later, the line was changed to run to Woodstock and St. Thomas. It will therefore be noted that Toronto to Orangeville would appear to be the main line with the line from Streetsville to Woodstock and St. Thomas a branch. History dictated that the portion between Toronto and Woodstock would become the main line of the CPR from Toronto to Windsor, while the Orangeville line would become secondary. Construction at Toronto was begun in 1875 and completed to Woodstock, Orangeville and the branch to Elora, all in the year 1879. The section from Woodstock to St. Thomas was constructed 1880-1881. The only account of a grand opening ofthe Credit Valley that I have read took place in Milton about 1877 when the then Governor General of Canada, the Marquis of Lome, officially opened the railway at a celebration in that community. It is interesting to note that it was originally planned to build the Elora branch as far as Salem, adjacent to Elora. However, this was never accomplished. President of the Credit Valley was a Mr. George Laidlaw, a railway promoter of that time who, as previously mentioned, was a guiding force of the TG&B. The Credit Valley crossed the narrow gauge Toronto, Grey & Bruce at what was then called Melville Cross.
