Historic Sites of Manitoba: Canadian National Railway Station / Cranberry Portage Heritage Museum (Cranberry Portage, RM of Kelsey)

This third-class Canadian National Railway station at Cranberry Portage, in the Rural Municipality of Kelsey, was built in 1929. It became a municipally-designated historic site in 1992. The building was unused until 2012 when a local initiative restored the building and converted it into a museum, which opened officially on 31 May 2015.
