Burlington Northern Santa Fe Manitoba (BNSF Manitoba) is a Canadian subsidiary railroad of BNSF Railway.
History
The railway traces its history to the Midland Railway of Manitoba which was incorporated in 1903 and built various lines around Winnipeg. The operations of the company were acquired by the Manitoba Great Northern Railway, a subsidiary of the Great Northern Railway (GN) on July 1 1909.
The lines were sold by the GN to the city of Winnipeg, except for the following sections:
* line from the CN mainline at Lindsay Street and Taylor Avenue to McPhillips Avenue
* Winnipeg yard trackage
The line to the International Boundary at Noyes, Minnesota was sold to the Canadian National Railway (CN), although the GN maintained trackage rights over it to access its tracks in Winnipeg.
After the GN was merged into the Burlington Northern Railroad in 1970, the name of the MGNR was changed to Burlington Northern Manitoba Ltd. in 1971. The last name change was to Burlington Northern Santa Fe (Manitoba) took place in 1999, following the merger of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway in 1996.
