Temiskaming and Northern Ontario Ry.—The total length of this line, owned by the Ontario Government, at the end of 1904 was 138 miles, of which 112 miles from North Bay to New Liskeard was being operated by the Government, and of the other 26 miles, ballasting and other work is being done, and the contractor is running trains over it. The line is under contract for about 100 miles north of New Liskeard, and work is in progress on the grade beyond mileage 138 from North Bay. The line is intended to effect a junction with the line to be constructed by the Transcontinental Ry. Commission from Moncton, N.B., to Winnipeg, Man., and the length of the T. & N.O. Ry. will be determined by whether the Moncton-Winnipeg line will go north or south of Lake Abitibi. In the one case the line would be about 75 miles in length from New Liskeard, and in the other about 175 miles. (Feb., Pg. 51.)
