CONNECTING RURAL FAMILIES The Bergen Cut-Off A long-abandoned rail bridge is one of the few remaining artifacts of a forgotten grain line

BY ALEX CAMPBELL Manitoba Agricultural Museum

hile crossing over the Kildonan Settlers W Bridge in Winnipeg, if you look south, you catch a glimpse of a disused railway swing bridge perched on its pier in the middle of the Red River. At this point, many read- ers will be thinking, “My sainted aunt! Writing an arti- cle about an abandoned bridge in Winnipeg! How does this relate to agriculture? They must have lost their minds at the Manitoba Agricultural Museum! What is next?” However, the readers will be astonished to learn the dis- used bridge has an agricul- tural connection. It is a rem- nant of the CPR’s Bergen Cut- Off which was a rail line meant to reroute grain traffic around the CPR’s yards and main line in Winnipeg as these facilities were quite congested in the pre-First World War era. The rapid expansion of cul- tivation on the Prairies in the period 1895 to 1910 posed huge problems for the CPR, Canadian Northern Pacific (CNoP) and Grand Trunk Pacific (GTP) railways which strug- gled with the grain traffic these Some 100 years after it was constructed and 80 years after it was abandoned, the Bergen Cut-Off rail bridge remains spanning the Red River. The photo shows clearly the railways were expected to han- swing portion of the bridge which has been left in the open position so as to allow vessels on the river to move through. However, it has been a number of years since any dle from the Prairies to the vessels big enough to warrant the bridge being open have operated in this area of the Red River. Given it has been probably decades since the bridge saw any maintenance, Lakehead in the fall.

Reap the benefits of family mealtimes Regular family meals can strengthen relationships and help children do better in school

BY JULIE GARDEN-ROBINSON NDSU Extension Service

“ hould we go see a hawk?” my son asked after we finished eating dinner with the S rest of our family. He was about 11 at the time. “Sure. Maybe we will see Spock on the way,” I replied. Back then, my son and I had to be a little devi- ous about using words that rhymed with “walk” when we went on regular walks around our neighbourhood. My younger daughter, who was three at the time, wanted to go along with us if she heard the word “walk.” However, she wouldn’t walk, ride in a stroller or drive a tricycle. She wanted to be carried on our back or shoulders. We sneaked out of the house to avoid carrying her for two or three miles. We usually brought her to the park when we returned. Thinking back, my daughter had this process Having a meal together as a family provides countless benefits to children and adults alike. PHOTO: THINKSTOCK figured out.

This Old Elevator

n the 1950s, there were over 700 grain elevators in Manitoba. Today, there are fewer than 200. You can help to preserve the legacy of these I disappearing “Prairie sentinels.” The Manitoba Historical Society (MHS) is gathering information about all elevators that ever stood in Manitoba, regardless of their present status. Collaborating with the Manitoba Co-operator it is sup- plying these images of a grain elevator each week in hopes readers will be able to tell the society more about it, or any other elevator they know of. MHS Gordon Goldsborough webmaster and Journal editor has devel- oped a website to post your replies to a series of questions about eleva- tors. The MHS is interested in all grain elevators that have served the farm community. Your contributions will help gather historical information such as present status of elevators, names of companies, owners and agents, rail lines, year elevators were built — and dates when they were torn down (if applicable). There is room on the website to post personal recollections and stories related to grain elevators. The MHS presently also has only a partial list of all elevators that have been demolished. You can help by updating that list if you know of one not included on that list. Your contributions are greatly appreciated and will help the MHS develop a comprehensive, searchable database to preserve the farm community's collective knowledge of what was once a vast network of grain elevators across Manitoba. Please contribute to This Old Grain Elevator website at: http://www.
