PORTAGE LA PRAIRIE, Man. – Canadian National Railway says two freight trains derailed west of Winnipeg.
Two locomotives and eight freight cars went off the tracks Thursday morning east of Portage la Prairie.
Winnipeg police are trying to piece together how a man was injured and subsequently died after an incident on a railway track north of Wilkes Avenue.
A CN Rail engineer came across the man Friday morning at around 9:30 a.m. and contacted police. The train was halted west of Shaftesbury Boulevard and officers arrived a short time later.
WINNIPEG — The Forks has hopped aboard a partnership with CN for the new naming rights to its entertainment stage and field.
Now known as CN Stage and Field, the area will continue to serve as a platform for year-round public programming at the site. The venue previously held the name Scotiabank Stage after a long-time sponsorship by the bank.
