The Irondale, Bancroft and Ottawa Ry. is in operation from Grand Trunk Jct. to Bancroft, 50 miles. The Co. has a subsidy from the Ontario Government of $3,200 a mile for an extension of 15 miles from the present terminus to near Fort Stewart. No Dominion subsidy has been granted for this portion, but it is said an endeavor may be made to obtain one next session.
