Lake Erie and Northern Ry.—Track laying is being proceeded with from Galt towards Brantford, Ont., on this line, and ballasting is in progress. Grading has so far progressed that it is not expected there will be any delay in the work of track laying into Brantford. It is expected to have this part of the line completed by Oct. 30. About 10 miles of grading have been completed between Brantford and Port Dover, and it is expected to finish up the remaining 20 miles by Dec. 31. The whole 53 miles from Galt to Port Dover is expected to be in operation June 1, 1914. The question of the terminal site in Port Dover has not been settled.
Arrangements are being made with the Hydro Electric Commission by which the Commissioners power line from the Brant substation into Brantford will be erected along the company's right-of-way. (Sept., pg. 432.)
