| 1903-07-09 | The Canada Atlantic Railway Company | The firm of J.R. Booth will about the beginning of next week commence laying the rails for the road to the new piling ground at the McTiernan farm. It is said that an effort will be made to have Mr. Booth erect an overhead crossing over the Merivale road, but he does not anticipate any trouble about this. The directors of the road company and Mr. Booth agreed on a crossing the other day and this will likely be proceeded with. | Ottawa Journal 1903-07-09(Transcribed by Colin J.

| 1903-09-14 | Elgin Street Depot | While unloading a lot of cattle for the Central Canada Fair, the staff of Senator Edward's Rockland Farm lost a valuable heifer as a result of the unsuitable arrangements at the Canada Atlantic yards at the Elgin Street station. The heifer, when she got out of the car, started to run and succeeded in passing the boy who was at the point where the cattle could get on the tracks. She ran across the yard and in front of a shunting train which struck the animal and knocked her into the mud hole where the excavation is being made for the subway; she died shortly thereafter from the injuries received. Exhibitors said their sheep had run right under the shunting trains at the depot. President Hutchinson explained he had had the track site surveyed and got an estimate from Mr. Booth as to the cost of laying a siding, but it had been dropped for want of funds; it will cost in the vicinity of $7,000 to lay the siding to a point about one hundred yards from the main gateway on Bank Street. | Ottawa Journal 1903-09-14(Transcribed by Colin J. Churcher in 'Local Railway...) |
| 1903-09-17 | Bank Street | Car No. 222 of the O.E.R. crashed through the gates and into a freight train standing on the Bank Street crossing this morning at 7.40. The motorman said the rails were greasy. | Ottawa Journal 1903-09-17(Transcribed by Colin J. Churcher in 'Local Railway...) |

| 1903-11-09 | Graham Bay Station | Run Off at Graham Bay. A run off occurred on the Canada Atlantic line this morning at Graham Bay station. The whole train is off the track and will block the way until some time this afternoon. No one was injured. The passenger train, which left the Central Station at 8.25 for Parry Sound, was not running very fast at the time the cars left the track. The cause of the accident is not really known but may have been due to some defect in the switch which was placed yesterday. The engine took the main line while the cars apparently mounted the frog and took the siding. The track was torn up considerably. | Ottawa Journal 1903-11-09(Transcribed by Colin J. Churcher in 'Local Railway...) |
| 1903-11-19 | Arnprior | Finley McLaren, about 13 years old, was sentenced by Police Magistrate Tierney to the county jail at Pembroke, for ten days for throwing stones at a Canada Atlantic freight train. Detective Lefoile for the CAR laid the information. R. Dulmage, solicitor, assisted by Crown Attorney Metcalfe, prosecuted, and J.H. Grout, solicitor, defended the prisoner. The light sentence was due to the prisoner's extreme youth. | Record, Chesterville 1903-11-19(Transcribed by Colin J. Churcher in 'Local Railway...) |
| 1903-12-10 | Car Shops | Instructing Railroaders. New travelling Car at the Canada Atlantic Car Shops.

| 1904-02 | Barrys Bay | Craigmont mill is the largest ore concentrating mill in Canada -- 300 long tons per day. Finished corundum was packed in 100 lb bags, over 3/4 mile tramway to wharf on York River. Company boat made daily trips to Barry's Bay. In the winter, they used a wagon. | Fleming Lee Whiting, Brenda. "The Craigmont Corundum Boom, 1900-13" Canadian Geographic Journal, Vol 90, No 4, April 1975. pp22-29 |
| 1904-02-05 | Killaloe | A Canada Atlantic railway freight train consisting of 36 cars of logs in charge of Conductor Connelly, which left Madawaska late Friday evening for Ottawa, jumped the rails near Killaloe station at 7.45 p.m. The train was running at a moderate speed when it suddenly left the rails, overturning 16 cars and the tender, which was almost completely demolished. The engine did not go over. Driver H.H. Leggat had enough presence of mind to shut off the steam as soon as he felt something was wrong; he was thrown from his engine and, falling backwards across an iron bar, was considerably bruised about his back. He was the only one of the train hands hurt. | Ottawa Journal 1904-02-08(Transcribed by Colin J. Churcher in 'Local Railway...) |
| 1904-02-26 | Vankleek Hill | There were large shipments of horses and cattle from the C.A.R. station here (Vankleek Hill) Tuesday last. | Eastern Ontario Review 1904-02-26(Transcribed by Colin J. Churcher in 'Local Railway...) |
| 1904-03-11 | Admaston | The station yard at Admaston is filled to overflowing with logs taken out by the Cumming Company of Renfrew. Twenty men and six teams have been steadily at work for some weeks, and they have filled up the large yard at the station with logs five and six tiers deep. | Mercury 1904-03-11(Transcribed by Colin J.

| 1904-04-12 | The Canada Atlantic Railway Company | Mr. Booth and Central Fair. Reason why C.A.R. won't touch a siding. There is talk around town about the refusal of the Canada Atlantic Railway to lay a siding into the Central Fair Grounds from the company's track which passes outside the Experimental Farm, although the Exhibition Association was willing to pay the interest on the cost. When stress was laid on this in an interview with General Manager Chamberlain, Mr. Chamberlain finally stated flatly that Mr. Booth would not put a dollar into the road. The reason appears to be that Mr. Booth is irritated by the action of the city council in restricting his lumber yards the previous year. | Ottawa Journal 1904-04-12(Transcribed by Colin J. Churcher in 'Local Railway...) |
| 1904-04-13 | Maxville | A small sized wreck occurred on the C.A.R. this morning at Christie's ballast pit, 46 miles east of Ottawa near Maxville. A through freight train was delayed three hours by two cars leaving the track. The derailment was caused by a bent axle. A wrecking train left the city to clear the track. Both cars were loaded with lumber and escaped serious damage. | Ottawa Journal 1904-04-13(Transcribed by Colin J. Churcher in 'Local Railway...) |

| 1904-07-18 | The Canada Atlantic Railway Company | IS THE GTR AFTER THE CAR? RUMOUR THAT THE RAILWAY WILL BE SOLD. The last rumour in railway circles is that the Grand Trunk railway intends purchasing the Canada Atlantic. Mr. Joseph Hobson, chief engineer for the Grand Trunk, was in the city and left on a trip over the line to Depot Harbour, accompanied by Mr. George A. Mountain, the retiring chief engineer of the CAR. A prominent railway man said the CAR would be an immense advantage to the GTR for the new transcontinental line's supplies and for shipping freight to the Eastern states via Coteau and the Central Vermont. Mr. J.R. Booth, asked about the proposition, remarked: 'Oh, you newspaper chaps are always selling my road. You will soon run short of buyers. I am not aware that Chief Engineer Hobson has gone over the line and as for the purchase of the CAR by the Grand Trunk there is no foundation for such a rumour. But the best sale is the one the newspapers recently made of my road to the Government. When I saw the figure mentioned - $20,000,000 - I was a little staggered. That is the highest quotation yet fixed by the press.' | Ottawa Journal 1904-07-18(Transcribed by Colin J. Churcher in 'Local Railway...) |

| 1904-08-27 | The Canada Atlantic Railway Company | TRAFFIC IS PICKING UP: CAR HAS SHORTAGE IN CAR SUPPLY. The freight business on the Canada Atlantic Railway, light all summer, is now picking up; considerable grain and lumber are being moved and a daily shortage in cars is being experienced. Yesterday a hundred cars had to be secured from the Delaware and Hudson, a connection on the CAR. Grain is also moving freely and the boats of the Canada Atlantic Transit Company are all in service, carrying more grain than at any previous period of the year. The repair shops of the road are being run full blast, but the machine shops in Ottawa East have shut down for a couple of weeks to give the 200 employees a holiday. 'Our rolling stock is in pretty good shape,' remarked an official, 'and we are looking forward to an unusually busy fall... Passenger traffic continues to be good and if possible we will keep on the three trains a day between the Capital and Montreal during the winter months. Usually we take the third train off in November, but I do not think we will do so this year.' | Ottawa Journal 1904-08-27(Transcribed by Colin J. Churcher in 'Local Railway...) |
| 1904-09-05 | The Canada Atlantic Railway Company | HOW THE SALE OF THE CAR WILL AFFECT OTTAWA. Rumours were rampant that the CAR was going to be bought by the GTR. While nothing was official, reporters speculated: Montreal was too close to Ottawa for the GTR to maintain shops in two places, so Ottawa's shops would close; the CAR head office would move to Montreal; about six hundred would lose their jobs and the loss of $60,000 in payroll would be second only to Booth's sawmill payroll. If Booth got out of the railway business, his big sawmill would keep him busy, as well as his new pulp mill, which, running day and night, turned out fifty tons of pulp a day; he was building a new paper mill at Chaudiere and the pulp output would increase to fill it. He then had twenty-two hundred men on his payroll, expected to increase. | Ottawa Journal 1904-09-05(Transcribed by Colin J. Churcher in 'Local Railway...) |

| 1904-11-27 | Madawaska | Collision at Madawaska. Two freight trains crash into one another. This is the first head-on collision on the Canada Atlantic for eighteen years. Two freight trains were given orders to cross at La Nappe, a small siding six miles west of Madawaska; the trains were proceeding slowly and the damage done was slight. It is thought that one of the trains had drawn onto the switch and either had not gone far enough or had pushed along too far, so a number of cars were ditched and the engines damaged. The fireman of the westbound train, Geo. Maguire of 432 Laurier Avenue, received such severe injuries that he was brought to St. Luke's hospital. The engines were not derailed and were used to assist in replacing the derailed cars. A couple of grain cars were broken open and the wheat scattered over the road bed; the road was blocked for some hours. With the exception of fireman Maguire the train hands escaped without injury. | Ottawa Journal 1904-11-28(Transcribed by Colin J. Churcher in 'Local Railway...) |

| 1904-12-02 | The Canada Atlantic Railway Company | The Canada Atlantic will on January 1 pass out of the hands of the present owners and come under the control of the Grand Trunk. Legislation will be required before the CAR can be absorbed by the GTR, although the GTR can purchase and operate it. | Ottawa Journal 1904-12-02(Transcribed by Colin J. Churcher in 'Local Railway...) |
| 1904-12-16 | The Canada Atlantic Railway Company | C.A.R. purchase. While the Canada Atlantic has passed into the hands of the Grand Trunk Railway no immediate change in arrangement of staff is anticipated. Statements have been made that some changes might be anticipated on January first, but according to an official who is in the best position to know, little change will be made until after the legislation ratifying the purchase is passed at the impending session. | Eastern Ontario Review 1904-12-16(Transcribed by Colin J.

A meeting was held of the Board of Works to consider an application by Mr. George Goodwin, contractor for the new Victoria Memorial museum, to lay a railway siding from the C.A.R. at Stewarton to the location of his work. The siding would pass by way of Catherine and Elgin streets and Argyle avenue. The board agreed to recommend that his request be granted, but the siding will have to be constructed according to plans and stipulations agreed upon by the city. The use of the siding would be wanted for the four years during which the museum will be in course of construction. | Ottawa Journal 1905-05-08(Transcribed by Colin J.
