Extra expense to complete Bay Road this year
Ottawa reports that finishing Vadson's Day Railway to Port Nelson this year would cost 250 000 to 350 000 dollars. Engine facilities would be unavailable by year end and ballast work on the last 44 miles could not be completed in 1927. The CNR could not guarantee operation to Tidewater for the remainder of the year. Charles Dunning communicates to J A Stomen of the Saskatchewan wheat growers that completing the railway would not speed port opening, as port development remains the priority. The government plans to study port development options in 1927.
