It began construction in 1913 and commenced operations in 1916 as a subsidiary of the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR), which had purchased the line before construction had finished. In 1931 it was consolidated with the Grand River Railway (GRNR) under a single CPR subsidiary, the Canadian Pacific Electric Lines (CPEL), which managed both interurban railways, though they continued to exist as legally separate entities. Passenger service was discontinued in 1955 but freight operations continued until 1961, when the LE&N electric locomotives were replaced by diesel CPR locomotives and the line was eventually de-electrified.
