The decision, which follows a series of hearings held early last year at. Hanover, Wingham and Fergus, permits the Canadian National (CN) and Canadian Pacific (CP) railway to abandon a number of unprofitable lines in this area. However it orders CN to keep open the section of its Kincardine subdivision linking Wingham to Listowel. Another part of the division, which is presented as a recommendation rather than an order, urges that CP construct a siding to connect the CN rail line with the Premium Lloyd Door Plant in Wingham, in anticipation of an application by CP to abandon the rail line by which it currently serves the factory. The decision represents a victory of sorts for Premium Lloyd, which had argued that cutting off direct rail service would not only scuttle plans for expansion but would likely mean the end of the existing operation. At the hearings, company representatives Gerry Wilhehn and Harper English told the commissioners the factory would prefer to retain the CP rail service it currently receives on a private siding right to the factory door, particularly since its shipments of West Coast lumber originate with CP. However they indicated they could live with a CN siding, provided their were no additional costs to the plant and the level and frequency of service remained the same. They did express concern that CN has been in the habit of suspending service north of Listowel during the winter months. In apparent anticipation of the committee's decision, CP' already has purchased several properties required for --construction of a. siding between the CN line near the Western Foundary and premium Lloyd. Work on the . track has not begun, however, and in the meantime, CP has continued to supply the plant via its existing siding. Mr. Wilhelm, plant manager, said last week he received no indication when things might change. He said he had received a copy of the Rail Transpprt Committee's decision, bdt,had not yet had opportuniti to study the 50 - page document in detail. He said he understood, however, that CP has not yet made a formal application to abandon its Teeswater subdivision which serves Wingham. Premium Lloyd still would prefer to continue the present arrangements, since it has no complaint about the service it has been receiving from CP and that rail line has a turnaround for a snow plow, which the CN line lacks, he said.
