In this ‘ear the act to incor- porate the Grami Trunk of Canada was bazscd - i1nd, conytryctkm c9mmenced B _ this time the interest in the new nut-Jun! of travel had amounted to a railway mania, and companies sprang up practically over night, applying for charters to build roads here and there, mostly Ior\shorl distances, in the Muritsmcs, Quebec and Ontario. for at that time the great north-west was known to the fur-traders alone, and per Imps a few missionaiies. liamcnt.

But in 1858. a line from Halifax to Truro was completed and by 1867 extended to Pictou Landing, while' in 1860 a route from St. John to Shediac had been established. Surveys had also been made for a line to continue lrom Truro to connect the Maritimes with the other provinces, but nothing was done until after Confederation in 1867, when the building of this connect- ing link was made a condition at (nuance into the confederation. The Dominion Government undertook the task, and by 1876 the 500 miles between Truro and Risiére du Lon wereopened for traitic throughout. led, line from Halifax to Truro and several other lines ‘in the Maritimes had been purchased " the federal government, and the entire trtaHertt was called the Inter- c_olottiryl hallway.

Forming the development of Western Canada, the management of the Grand ‘Trunk Railway System conceived the idea of constructmg a new transcon- tinental line from coast to coast.

The western division to be known at the Grand Trunk Pacific, extending from Winnipeg to Prince Rage“. and comprisin; a mileage of 1.7 5 miles, to be built by the Grand Trunk Pacific Yttt The eastern division, comprising 1, miles east of Winnipeg, to be built by the Canadian Government under the supervision of the Commissioners of the Transcontinental Railing, and leased to the Grand Thnk Paci c Railway for a period of fifty years. So that, by 1914, the Grand Trunk and the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway together com. prised over 7,500 miles of rails: operated boats on the Pacific coast ‘between Seattle, Vancouver, Victoria,' Prince Rupert and Alaska ports; huge grain elevators at various important tide- water and lake terminals, and I chain of splendid hotels.
