I don’t know about farms, but I remember having weekly passenger service between Eston and Saskatoon, with stops at Plato, Greenan, Wartime, Elrose, Dinsmore, etc. Technically, they were mixed trains, hauling grain and mixed freight, along with a passenger car.
On arrival in Saskatoon, we could switch to a major passenger train to cross the country or catch a rail liner (self powered passenger car) either North to Prince Albert or South to Regina, with stops at every village along the way. At those terminals, you could then catch trains to Nipawin or Meadow Lake or to other parts of the country.
I’m not sure that a pure passenger service is feasible, but most of the destinations I listed still have sidings in use for grain and oil, so adding a passenger car to create a mixed train might work.
