Rail line reopened after protests near Neepawa Manitoba
Protests by Neepawa and area groups led to the April 27 reopening of 19 miles of the Petrel Junction to Neepawa rail line operated by CNR. Trains run weekly, with plans for more continuous service, while advocates press for permanent operation and coordinated public support. A separate effort in Rossburn seeks to prevent further abandonment, with hearings requested and alliances formed with United Grain Growers and Manitoba Pool Elevator.
