In Lovell's Directory for 1871, under , William Hayes and John Mollison were listed as Carriage Builders ; Robert Hayes and William Jones were listed as Blacksmiths. In later years, George Jelley operated a blacksmith shop near the Bideford Dam. Completion of the Prince Edward Island Railway was in 1875. In the early 1900's, a stagecoach met the train at some stations to transport pas¬ sengers to surrounding communities. A schedule of Stage Connections, printed by Railway, circa 1913, includes the follow¬ ing communities: Ellerslie : For Bideford , Lot 12, daily, Sunday excepted. : For (proper) and Tyne Valley , daily, Sunday excepted. Richmond : For Grand River , Lot 14, and Arlington , Higgin's Road and St. Chrysostom , Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Gradually the use of motor vehicles replaced the use of trains for travel and transportation. It became no longer profitable to maintain the rail¬ way system on Prince Edward Island . The final run of the night train from Charlottetown to Tignish was April 4, 1964. On December 28, 1989 the last railway engines left Prince Edward Island by Marine Vessel John Hamilton Gray . ..
