Schomberg and Aurora Ry.—in 1896 the Dominion Parliament passed an act authorizing the construction of a line from between King and Newmarket to Schomberg, Ont., and in 1900 a further act was passed authorizing the construction of additional lines to Beeton and Collingwood, Oshawa to Bowmanville, from Bond Lake to Big Bay Point—and from Barrie to Sutton, Ont. The total mileage authorized is 135 miles, and of this there has been constructed 15 miles from near Bond Lake, on the Metropolitan Division of the Toronto and York Radial Ry., to Schomberg. The line is owned by Mackenzie, Mann & Co. interests and is operated by steam.
