Hamilton, Ontario population 721,000, the third-largest city in Canada, it is a port city on the West end of Lake Ontario, it is heavily industrialized. The Toronto, Hamilton and Buffalo railway ran from 1894 to 1987. It never reached the other two cities in its name, the railway was originally chartered in 1884 by the Ontario Legislative Assembly to run from Toronto to the International Railway Bridge connecting with local lines to Buffalo. The original corporation was unable to complete the line before the original charter expired. In 1895, the Canadian Pacific Railway and the New York Central Railroad bought the TH&B. The TH&B was jointly owned by the CPR and the NYC for several decades. NYC and its subsidiaries (Michigan Central Railroad, and Canada Southern Railway) owned 73%, while the CPR owned the other 27%.
