    G3's new port plus all the new Grain Corp and G3 elevators will create a over supply of storage in Canada.

    Especially with us crushing as much canola as we have been in the last few years.

    Hint that's good for farmers.

    Will likely see more railcars just to keep up demand at port. Will still have issues but more cars and more port space should help.
    average prairie yields increasing, and some older high thoroughput elevators with limited siding capacity will be closed. New elevators will continue to be built in my opinion.

          Alberta had ordered a bunch of oil tankers but cancelled them for some reason. Didn't follow it but I thought it would be a good way to fill gap until pipeline gets built. That wasn't fed gov't tho.

            They aren’t canceled . Delivery is way behind schedule from supplier . The company I work for has been asked if we can help with this

              -- CP Rail Brief: Records Best Ever Month For Canadian Grain Transport
              8:39AM ET on Tuesday Nov 12, 2019 by MT Newswires

              This was for the month of Oct, so CP is moving grain but that does mean there isn't congestion.

                That was an NDP thing. PC govt axed that as soon as they took power. It was a sizeable amount of cars 7000? Maybe leased too. I forget.

                  Isn’t there any grain to move?
                  Or was the crop smaller than we’re being told?
