"One of" the busiest. Not "the busiest". There is a difference.

It is correct to say it is one of the busiest, because it is.

Not that it's some kind of feather in Winnipeg's cap or anything... most of the freight trains are passing through along the main line. Until you made your comment, it never occurred to me that having a bunch of freight trains rumbling through town was something to brag about.
