Lord Lorne can be recognized standing in the centre of the official group and the party about him include George Laidlaw, Toronto, promoter and President of the line, John C. Bailey, Toronto, an outstanding figure at the time, who mapped the route of a dozen Canadian railways and made the survey—“Bailey Route”—of the T. & N.O.R. He was the engineer of the Credit Valley Railway and Harry Crewe, Toronto, was his chief assistant. To the right can be discerned the late James Ross, a young Scotch surveyor and engineer from Kingston, New York, in charge of construction, who afterwards became the Montreal millionaire.

Among others in this photograph are—Honorable Geo. W. Allan, Senator, Honorable John McMurrich, M.L. C., Toronto, James Beatty, K.C., Mayor of Toronto, Ross McKenzie, accountant with the Credit Valley Railway, who probably was Canada’s most famous lacrosse player, and Wm. Taylor, secretary for James Ross.
