Eventually, the city of Guelph applied pressure on the CPR to get the line built. The CPR had finished three surveys for the Goderich line by December 1903; the first via Linwood, Ontario, Linwood, Atwood, Ontario, Atwood, Brussels, Ontario, Brussels and Listowel, Ontario, Listowel; the second via Conestogo, Ontario, Conestogo, Linwood, Atwood, Brussels; and the thir ...

Turning is a machining process in which a cutting tool (machining), cutting tool, typically a non-rotary tool bit, describes a helix toolpath by moving more or less linearly while the workpiece rotation around a fixed axis, rotates. Usually the term "turning" is reserved for the generation of ''external'' surfaces by this cutting action, whereas this same essential cutting action when applied to ''internal'' surfaces (holes, of one kind or another) is called "boring (manufacturing), boring". Thus the phrase "turning and boring" categorizes the larger family of processes known as lathing. The cutting of faces on the workpiece, whether with a turning or boring tool, is called "facing", and may be lumped into either category as a subset. Turning can be done manually, in a traditional form of lathe, which frequently requires continuous supervision by the operator, or by using an automated lathe which does not. Today the most common type of such automation is computer numerical ...
