Other Manitoba and Saskatchewan Developments

As the thread topic gets down to fine points and details, reg: feasability and rail line integrity, load amounts on crude carrying tanker cars,(About 30-32 thousand gallons, yes I still do things the old way), speed of tanker cars on the lines involved in the proposal, rail transport of crude is "Booming", Tanker car Production is Booming", there is too much of a back log in bitumen,crude, the prices for the product will dictate if they ship it to churchill, even if it's a wonky railine, as poster here are saying.

But the details are in the Dollars. If the large oil corporations believe they can make even 5$ a barrel more to ship it by rail to Hudson Bay, even with a short shipping season, they will. Will they (possibly upgrade the port if needed, even though It "Already ships some oil north" they will.

It's an oppurtunity for Churchill to become relevent for manitoba and it's economy. That's a good thing,especially with the loss of the CWB(won't go thier in this thread). I believe. If we want to start an enviormental impact thread, about shipping in the artic I will. Tht's a whole different ball of wax.
