Nipissing Central Railway

The line was originally an interurban streetcar system connecting New Liskeard, Haileybury and Cobalt on the western bank of Lake Temiskaming in northern Ontario from 1910 to 1935.

The operating company continues to be used to operate the Ontario Northland Railway freight spur line between Swastika, Ontario and Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec as it was incorporated under a federal charter, avoiding the need to re-charter either end in its respective provinces.

An extension along Lake Timiskaming to New Liskeard opened on 1 November 1912, ending at Whitewood Avenue.

In 1914, an existing spur line on the T&NO to Kerr Lake was electrified and joined to the NCR.

When the T&NO built a spur line between Swastika and Rouyn-Noranda, they operated it under the charter of the NCR, thereby avoiding problems with crossing the provincial border (the T&NO was incorporated in Ontario).
