Reesor Siding

Situated on the National Transcontinental Railway at m.p. 101, this little community should not be confused with its larger neighbour Reesor, situated 2.8 kilometres west. Reesor Siding was a separate community which at its peak contained nearly 100 residents. Originally destined to be a mere siding, a number of Mennonite, and French Canadians took land nearby the railway not long after the railways construction in 1915. A vague crossroad community had begun to emerge.
