Grand Trunk Ry.—The Brantford, Ont., City Council has adopted a report of its committee on railways, which made four recommendations: (1) That the city waive insistence on the building by the G.T.R. of the Holmedale spur and the Eagle Place switches, and the maintenance of the Colborne St. station as a station and as a stop; (2) That the G.T.R. convey to the city the extension of Clarence St., 66 ft. wide, south through G.T.R. lands; (3) That the G.T.R. convey to the city property for the purpose of enabling the city to extend Northumberland St. westerly to the line of Clarence St.; (4) That the G.T.R. assume the total cost of the St. Paul Ave. subway as a roadway, 44 ft. wide, as directed to be constructed by the Board of Railway Commissioners. (July, pg. 273.)

Work is to be started at once on the erection of a brick station at St. Catharines, Ont. The build is to be built on a granite base. The company is erecting a similar building at Berlin, N.H., on the main line between Montréal and Portland, Me.
