Hamilton, Grimsby and Beamsville's interurban line ran for 22 miles along the southern shore of Lake Ontario.
The HG&B interchanged freight cars with other lines in the Hamilton Radial System, with the TH&B [Kinnear Yard] and with the Grand Trunk [Winona].
The HG&B derived a large amount of revenue by hauling fruit grown in the northern section of the Niagara Peninsula.
It built a car shop in Grimsby and a coal-fired steam-electric DC generator at Stoney Creek.
The connection was never made as bridging the Twenty Mile Creek ravine was economically unfeasible.
