Marie, Searchmont, Trout Lake, Spruce Lake, Frater, Eton, Sand Lake, Hawk Junction, Dubreuilville, Franz, Wabatong, Oba and Hearst ≤ The ACR goes through cultural communities representing the three founding peoples of Canada: First Nations, Francophone and Anglophone ≤ The ACR travels through the Chapleau Crown Game Preserve— the world’s largest game preserve—and Lake Superior Provincial Park ≤ The ACR is one of North America’s few remaining “flag stop” trains where passengers can disembark or flag down the train anywhere along the line.
