The Toronto, Hamilton, and Buffalo (TH&B) Railway came into existence on March 25, 1884 when a piece of Provincial Legislation was passed, allowing the building of a small railway to service Hamilton and the surrounding area. It took almost 10 years to get its affairs in order, but in 1893, the TH&B railway finally commenced functional train services.

The early operating years of the TH&B saw a gigantic gain in the amount of track laid and engines purchased. On May 24, 1895, Hamilton saw the TH&B's first Hamilton originating train begin its maiden voyage on the newly built city tracks. By the next year, both the Hunter street tunnel, and the Hunter street station would be completed and open for business.
