The CP Lac Du Bonnet subdivision runs from Molson, MB 10.2 miles through Beausejour, MB. The majority of the subdivision was purchased by the Lake Line Railroad in 2012.
This line was originally built by the Dominion Government (of Canada) as a portion of the Pacific Railway, the first attempt at a trans-continental railway before the Canadian Pacific Railway. The line was opened for traffic in May 1880 and the CPR took it over on October 21, 1880.
The portion of the line between Beasejour and Birds Hill (about 21 miles) was abandoned in 1987 after seeing no traffic since 1981.
