Railway Branch Costs and Engineer Reports in Newfoundland
The Government Engineer reports on three years of Newfoundland Railway equipment and operation are discussed, with answers from Roster Watson Col Sec. on rolling stock, locomotive power, schedule regularity, and winter maintenance. The discussion covers branch lines at Placentia, Carbonear, Brigus Junction to St. John’s, and anticipated costs, including a 80,000 pound loan and potential further borrowing to complete surveys and construct mileage across Bonavista, Trepassey, Heart’s Content, and other branches. The House adjourned after addressing the Harbor Regulations Amendment bill and related notices.
