Erwood grew up along the railway. In 1890 the Canadian Northern Railway began building a line north from Swan River, Manitoba, aiming for Hudson Bay. The builders started in the narrow corridor between the Porcupine Hills and Lake Winnipegosis, but then turned west into the North-West Territories, where the logging industry was developing. By 1900 the line ended at E.R. Wood, a spot that later became known as Erwood. From 1903 to 1905 the line was extended west to Melfort.
