When construction began in 1901, the builders, Fauquier Brothers, avoided cutting straight through the "ever- present" rock ridges of the western Sudbury area.

"rascals and vagabonds now spread and remaining and being in all the court..." Pincombe and Shrank wrote that the excuse of Henry's absence "was nothing more than a convenient fiction".
