History
Kellett was founded with the building of the Hudson Bay Railway in the third decade of the 20th century. When the originally intended final section line route to Port Nelson was abandoned, the construction of the new route of the final section from Amery north to Churchill, which opened in 1929, led to its founding. Kellett lies on the line between the settlements of Herchmer to the south and O'Day to the north.[3]
Transportation
Kellett is the site of Kellett railway station, served by the Via Rail Winnipeg – Churchill train.
gollark: Well, I couldn't work out how to make that available to others safely, so I have to do it.
gollark: Oh, right.
gollark: If it's too similar, then the low Levenshtein distance between apiospatial config files and your APIONET config file *could* actually open an informational path through apio*meta*space, which would then allow IRC messages to travel across it, thus possibly causing incursions.
gollark: Well, if the configuration is too similar, then it might be too similar to configuration files used by IRC networks in apiospace. Now, of course, most apiospatial information is highly cognitometaapiohyperhazardous, so it would be bad if it entered normal IRC networks.
gollark: You must install ngircd, set up appropriate SSL certificates (or use existing ones), and do various configuration.
