- Algoma_Eastern_Railway abstract "The Algoma Eastern Railway (reporting mark AER) was a historic Canadian railway operating in the province of Ontario.The AER can be traced to a charter in 1888 under the provincial government as the Manitoulin & North Shore Railway (M&NS) which intended to connect Manitoulin Island with the mainland. The charter was held by a syndicate headed by Robert A. Lyon, however, no construction took place throughout the 1890s. The charter was acquired in 1899 by Francis Clerque of Sault Ste. Marie.The M&NS was re-chartered under the federal government in 1900 to connect Sudbury with Little Current on Manitoulin Island. From there the line was to run to the southern end of Manitoulin Island and via a railcar ferry to Tobermory and on to Meaford, Wiarton and Owen Sound. In October 1913 the line reached Little Current on Manitoulin Island with the opening of the Little Current Swing Bridge; it would never extend further to the southern end of the island, nor the ferry service to the Bruce Peninsula and connection to Owen Sound.On May 19, 1911 while it was still under construction to Little Current, Clerque had the M&NS renamed to the Algoma Eastern Railway in order to maintain naming similarity with the other Lake Superior Corporation subsidiary companies.".
