Toronto and York Radial Ry.—The Metropolitan Division is being extended northward from the present terminus at Newmarket, through Queensville, Sutton and Roach's Point to Jackson's Point on Lake Simcoe, about 25 miles. Ewen Mackenize is the contractor, the company supplying all materials, such as steel, ties, etc. The rails are T pattern, 60 lbs. to the yard, and were purchased in England. It is expected to have the track laid this season. A station building has been completed at the junction of the line with the Schomberg and Aurora Ry., near Bond Lake, and additional plant is being installed in the power house at Bond Lake. The question of double tracking the line for some distance north of the C.P.R. tracks on Yonge St., is being discussed with the municipal authorities. (July, pg. 315).
