This railroad bridge to no where is still used by the occasional pedestrial to cross the Assiniboine River. The tracks are long gone as is shown by the one photo.
Really could not find out much more information then that.
In a posting from Perter and Gloria:
There used to be a train station about 0.3 miles north of here on this line. It was constructed in 1910 by the Canadian Northern Railway as the southernmost station on what was called the Oak Point Subdivision. It was first called “Westside Station” and renamed St. James Station. It was moved away in February, 2000.
