This is Jim Simmon's original article which I'd like to leave as is. Should there be an discrepancies, please use this discussion page to propose changes and then we'll add footnotes should the changes be justified. --Stem 10:33, 1 April 2011 (MDT)

Perhaps a note could be added at the top of Jim Simmon's article referring readers to other pages for history prior to 1900.

The controversy and disagreements between the Windsor & Annapolis Railway and the Western Counties Railway over the operations of the Windsor Branch deserve treatment on the wiki. The short histories of the W&A and WCR both mention the hassles, but only a mention. Maybe that is sufficient regarding the commercial struggle between the companies. Maybe add a reference to the Woodworth book for more details?

Also we could add a short history of the efforts of Joe Howe and his associates to get the Nova Scotia Railway Windsor Branch built. I suppose I could do a small piece of text for the Nova Scotia Railway Windsor Branch up to the 1894 merger. --Sarah Taylor 19:59, 15 October 2019 (ADT)
