Northlands Park is an unincorporated railway point in the municipality of Gauthier, Timiskaming District in Northeastern Ontario, Canada.[1][3][4][5][6] It is adjacent to Ontario Highway 672, 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) north of that highway's southern terminus at Ontario Highway 66 (at which point Highway 66 is part of the Trans-Canada Highway).[3][6]
Northlands Park was established in the 1920s at the construction of the Nipissing Central Railway line between Swastika (Ontario) and Rouyn-Noranda (Quebec) at mile 14.1. The line continues to be operated, as a subsidiary of the Ontario Northland Railway, as a freight spur.[7]
