Halcrow is a railroad siding in northern Manitoba, Canada, about a mile east of Cormorant Lake on the eastern edge of the Cormorant Provincial Forest.[1] It is in an unorganized area, one without incorporated municipalities or Indian reserves,[2] in Division 21, Northern Region of Manitoba. It is a flag stop on Via Rail's Winnipeg – Churchill rail line.[3][4]

The siding was named after Gideon Halcrow (1852–1920), a shipwright.[5]
