Cranberry Portage station is a former railway station in Cranberry Portage, Manitoba, Canada, whose building is now home to the Cranberry Portage Heritage Museum.[1][2][3]

Located west of Grass River Provincial Park in north-central Manitoba, the building was constructed in 1929 as a two-storey, third-class station by the Canadian National Railway.[4] The station was later served by Via Rail's "The Pas-Pukatawagan" line for the Keewatin Railway.[5]
