Central Western

Company History: The CWRL opened in 1987 to take over operations on the Canadian National line from Morrin Junction to Camrose, Alberta. The goal of this locally controlled line was to continue to serve the line’s grain elevators for as long as they needed. The last elevator closed in the late 1990s and the remaining segment of track was conveyed to Alberta Prairie Rail for use as a tourist line.
