Colin Churcher's Research Notes

I spent a considerable amount of time in the National Archives (now Library and Archives Canada - LAC) looking at various files concerning railways in the Ottawa area.  I made notes on my lap top which are shown here. These are not verbatim and, on occasion, give my interpretation.  The file numbers have been shown so it should be a relatively simple matter to consult them directly at LAC. All errors and omissions are my own. The listing is in two parts, the first showing those files by specific railway subdivision or line, the second and smaller, by topic.
