Ottawa Cross town tracks.—N. Cauchon addressed the Engineering Institute of Canada's Ottawa branch recently, urging the removal of the G.T.R. cross town tracks, and the members passed a resolution endorsing the proposal. The Ottawa City Council also had the matter brought before it recently by a deputation from city business organizations. It was arranged to promote the signing of petitions to the government, asking that the cross town tracks be removed. Two plans for the removal of the tracks are suggested, one for G.T.R. trains going west to leave the city over Canadian National Rys. lines, and the other that all trains cross the city through a tunnel.
