FIRST RAILWAY IN CANADA.
Train Was Run Over Primitive Road
bed in 1886.

The first railway in Canada was the
Champlain and st. Lawrence railway,
which ran from Laprairie on the ST.
Lawrence river, eight miles above
Montreal, to st. Johns, on the Richie
lieu, a distance of 141a miles. "The
company of proprietors Of the Cham
plain and st. Lawrence Railway was
incorporated on February 25, 1882,
but work was not. begun until 1885.
On July 81, 1886, the first train was
run over the road A few days before
an accident had happened to the little
engine, and it was deemed advisable
to attach to it only two of the passen-
ger cars, while the others were drawn
each by two horses. Some three hun
dred persons, including the Earl of
Gosford and other high officials, were
present by invitation of the directors,
to take their first trip over a Canadi-
an railway. Next day, when the en-.
CINE had been repaired, it effected the
journey to st. Johns with two pas
sengers and two loaded freight cars.
in forty-fve minutes, and returned in
consisted of the engine, of from five
to six tons, four passenger cars each
carrying eight persons, and twenty
freight cars, capable of conveying
about ten tons each The engine cost
91,500, and the cars $1,000. The
cost of the road itself was estimated
at $4,000. The rails were of wood,
with fiat iron spiked to them, and as
far as any degree of smooth convey
ance was concerned, similar condi-
tons today, would by no means suit
twentieth century requirements. The
real epoch, however, during which
railway construction in Canada had its
serious beginning, was between 1853
and 1856.

An appreciable decrease. The aver

Fast EnqIish Trains.

The quickest run in England is the
Northeasterns from Darlington to
York, 44lz miles, at a speed of GIT
miles per hour, but this can scarcely
be ranked above the Great Westerns
run from Paddington to Bristol via
Bath, 11Sas miles, at speed of 59.2
miles per hour. The longest run is
the Great Westerns from Padding
ton to Plymouth, 225A miles, at a
speed of 54.S miles per hour, though
the Midland has one nearly as good
from Leeds to st. Pancras, 1861 miles
at 55.3 miles per hour.
