Appleton, General Manager oi the Atlantic Region oi the Canadian Na- tional Railways, announces the re- tirement of Thomas Bell Grady, Supt. oi the Prince Edward Island Division. after a service oi fifty-three years. Mr. Grady entered the service oi tbe Prince Edward Island Railway as ‘a. telegraph operator at Summerside in October i876 and in December of the same year became relieving agent. For a short period in 1880 he served sstrain despatcher in Charlottetown. afterwards becoming e train con- ductor. In i881 he returned to Sum- mcrside as operator and ticket clerk, and served as assistant agent, ticket agYnt and operator there‘ until June 3rd, 1913, when he was appointed station agent, and on November 14, 191d, he became supt. at Charlotte- town. Mr. Grady. whose term of service expired at 12 o'clock last. night, is succ ’ ‘ by Mr. J. D. McNutt, as- sistant superintendent st Campbell- ton, New Brunswick. Mr. McNutt, whlfarrived in Chaslottetown last night. takes up his new duties today. . Interview-ed by The Guardian re- porter Mr. Grady stated that he has worked, under seven superintendents; WirifMcKechnie, Alex. McNab. Jss. Coleman. Joseph Unsworth, Alex. Mc- Donald. G. A. Sharp. Horace Mc- Ewen. At the time when he entered tbe service je rolling stock and io- comotives were very small. The box cars and fiat cars had a. capacity of‘8 tons. and locomotives had a hauling capacity oi 125 tons. The Is- land system at that timewas a nar- raw gauge road with an extremely light rail. poor ties, and no ballast. The road condition was not improved to any extent until after he took charge as superintendent. At the present time, while we have not got what is looked upon as a standard roadbed we have our road equipped between Emerald Junction and Charlottetown with heavy B5 pound rails, and between Borden and Tig- nish "with e1 pound rails. This por- tion oi the road has been fairly well ballasted and is supported with good ties-Between Royalty Junction and Georgetown the road is equipped with 85 pound rails. -A portion oi this track is well baliasted and all furnished with good ties, so that we have a roadbed capable of handling. and does handle, cars having e cap- acity oi ‘ld or 90 tons. and engines ranging from 580 to 800 tons over difficult parts of the road. The pas- senger equipment has been brought up in line with the ‘freight service. and st present we are handling fully as good passenger cars as are in use on the mainland with the exception oi a few oi the first class heavy passenger trains that handle all steel equipment The only part oi the road now to be changed from narrow to standard gauge is the Murray Har- bour sub-division, and this change wiil.)no doubt. be brought about next year.
