The Canadian Northern Railway station at Bowsman Manitoba was built in 1900.
CN's Erwood subdivision ran 70 miles north from Swan River to Westgate MB. The subdivion was slowly abandoned starting in 1990, with the remaining section between Swan River and Bowsman being abandoned in April 2000.
It was moved to the Swan Valley Museum at Swan River, a mere 13kms south from the original location.
