Historic Sites of Manitoba: Canadian National Railway Station (380 Hazelwood Street, The Pas)

The VIA Rail / Canadian National Railway Station at The Pas is a one-and-a-half-storey, multi-coloured-brick railway station, built in 1928 and opened in January 1929. The Station reflects the optimistic outlook of the late 1920s for the future of northern Manitoba and The Pas. It functioned as a terminus and distribution centre for northern Manitoba and was important to the mining and forestry industry.
