South of Emerson, the [[Canadian National Railway|Canadian National (CN)]] and [[Canadian Pacific Railway|Canadian Pacific (CP)]] Railways cross the border and are met, respectively, by the [[BNSF Railway]] and the [[Soo Line Railroad]] (CP's main U.S. subsidiary). There are customs inspection facilities for both lines on either side of the border.
