. The Cuba review. THE CUBA REVIEW 23 NEWS ABOUT RAILROADS CAIBARIEN AND NUEVITAS RAILROAD This new railroad, for which a subsidy has been granted to the North Coast Rail- road Company, organized by Jose Miguel Tarafa, will connect the ports of Nuevitas and Caibarien, passing through Moron and to the south of the mountain range of Bamburanao. The company under the concession will build for its own account a railroad line to 80 kilometers long from the city of Camaguey to Santa Cruz del Sur to entrunk with the main line, obliges itself to con- struct two sugar mills in the zones crossed by the lines, and to establish offices in Havana, Camaguey, Santa Cruz and other towns for the development of the lands and to aid prospective settlers. BUYING AN OLD ROAD The Puerto Principe & Nuevitas Railway was purchased by Roland R. Conklin of New York and J. M. Tarafa of Havana. The line was built in 18.35, is the oldest in Cuba, and one of the oldest in the West- ern Hemisphere. It was the first railroad ever built in the Spanish dominions, exist- ing fifteen years before Canada had a mile of track. This road, together with the Jucaro S Moron Railway, also controlled by the Conklin and Tarafa interests, will form a part of the national railways system, in- cluding the North Coast Railway conces- sion, which was recently granted by the Cuban government, and which an American company will control, but it is stated that the bonds have been placed with British and French bankers. A map of that part of Camaguey Prov- ince traversed by these roads is printed on this page.
