Grain trains operate at the Conquest end of the line.

The west end is serviced out of Mantario and Glidden. The middle section has no business.

There's a grain line in Saskatchewan that leaves the Saskatoon-Calgary line around Delise. It's one of the lines that Canadian National wants to abandon but I heard that the farmers in this area fought to keep the line in place. I've crossed over the level crossing at Elrose many times over a 24 year period & it doesn't look as if any trains have passed by there in a long time. I don't know if there's any large grain facilities on this line, so would it be more feasible for CN to abandon or sell it?
