 | | During this time, the THandB approached Hamilton City Council again and proposed another $275,000 grant which would be awarded in three stages- $100,000 when the tracks reached West Hamilton, $100,000 when the tracks reached East Hamilton, and $75,000 when the tracks reached Welland. |
 | | The city of Hamilton had to pay for any damage to property, sewers, waterworks, roadways, and sidewalks during the construction project, which amounted to over one million dollars. |
 | | The original 1895 agreement signed between the City of Hamilton and the THandB stated that if the rail service to Hamilton was ever ceased, the THandB would pay the City of Hamilton the original loan sum of $224,500 with interest at approximately 4 percent. |
