Caledonian for working the line, and the surplus after other charges was £413. Meanwhile, the contractor Mackay had an outstanding claim for £11,150, so far not declared in the accounts.

Although arrears on calls on the shares were said to be minimal, the take up of the authorised share issue was incomplete, and the company soon found itself short of cash and appealed to the

The line was to be six miles (9 km) long, with no intermediate stations; there was to be a 90-yard (82 m) tunnel, and a significant overbridge under

In 1863 Colonel

A trial run over the line was carried out just before 17 May 1893, and the line was formally inspected by Major-General
Hutchinson of the Board of Trade on 29 May 1893. The inspection was successful and the opening of the line took place with much ceremony on 1 June 1893. There were six passenger

In an attempt to sustain the passenger service, British
