1B THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursdey, October 24, 1963 VANCOUVER (CP)--The re- mains of two long-dead rail- ways will be exhumed for the last time at the next session of the British Columbia legisla- ture. Then they'll be buried. The two are the Vancouver, Victoria and Eastern Railway and Navigation Company, formed in 1897, and the Nelson and Fort Sheppard Railway, founded in 1891. Both lines were absorbed by the Great. Northern Railway, a U.S. transcontinental carrier, Rossland, 300 miles to the east, to support the thousands of men hunting for gold in the area. The company, declared a rail- |way under the Federal Railway /Act in 1898, also planned a sys- tem of trains, steamers, ferries New Westminster, %.C., to Garry Point near Blaine Wash., on the U.S. burder The closest the railway came to being an entity was the ap on rail lines in B.C, In 1908 ik pearance of some rojling stock) ture to dissolve both compan-jern and a line was built from ies so they can be removed|New Westminster to the U.S from the firm's books. -- a Five men founded the VVE ne service to L058 an Was and their dream was to carry provided by the Canadian Pa- A cific Railway supplies from Vancouver to athe "Nelaon anid Fort.
