The Rice Lake, Dallas and Menomonie Railway (RLD&M) was a railroad company based in Wisconsin. It was known locally as "the Blueberry Line" due to the abundance of blueberry vines along its route.[1]

The RLD&M was chartered on February 9, 1893, and built a {{convert|7.52|mi|km|adj=mid|long}}[2] connection from Rice Lake to Cameron; construction began on October 16,[3] and the line began operations on February 22, 1894.[4] In the Summer of 1899, surveyors began work to extend the line from Cameron to Menomonie, with the first surveys taking place on August 23.[5] Construction continued through Barron in 1900[6] such that by the end of the year, a second line connecting Barron and Ridgeland was completed.[7] Ridgeland was as far south as the RLD&M was to reach before its absorption.[8] The RLD&M was purchased by the Soo Line in 1900,[9] then was fully absorbed by 1901.[10]

The railroad's president was George Fuller, vice president was George Morehouse Huss[11] and secretary and treasurer was J.E. Horsman.[12]
