The TH&B did not go to Niagara Falls. It served as the connection between the CP and the NYC, carrying cars between Welland, where it connected with the NYC System line from Buffalo to Detroit and Hamilton, where it connected with the CP. xxx The current Maple Leaf, just as the Lehigh's Maple Leaf, uses only CN tracks between Niagara Falls, Ont., and Toronto, and is operated by VIA.

Hi Everyone, What railroad does the Maple Leaf use between Toronto and Niagara Falls, NY? Is it the former TH&B? Thanks for any assistance you can give.

I think so - at least up to Bayview Jct.
