No, you can see the old ROW to Port Nelson and it goes all the way, this one is much further North and is only about 11.8km long. Might have been to access material from a quarry/borrow pit?

I like how that photo makes the land look like a huge sponge... which it is, of course

Got it. Yes, probably to a wayside pit. I can make out the remains of a small yard at the end. The Hudson's Bay Lowlands are dotted with eskers which are natrually occuring glacial deposits of sand and gravel.
