Hways Cut Rail Traffic In Northern Manitoba
The Canadian National Railway told Manitoba’s Royal Commission on Northern Transportation that highway growth is reducing rail use in northern Manitoba. Extensions of Highway 10 to The Pas and Flin Flon led to discontinuing passenger rail service between them in 1963. Thompson gained six weekly passenger trains since 1960 activity began, but CN says that level isn’t self supporting. The company employed about 750 permanent workers in northern Manitoba last year, with payroll over 5 million dollars.
