I have my doubts on that one, industry still loads machinery on rails there give the proximity of the O&G sector. Happy to be wrong but a railhead isn't some over complicated beast of infrastructure that a major rail hub like Edmonton wouldn't have the abilityI agree, I think Op KINETIC in 99 mounted out of Edmonton by rail.
Smarter than me log types have told me that even the civilian yards in Edmonton now lack the ability.
I’m skeptical still but maybe there is truly no ability to load by rail in Edmonton and the G4 Tn folks were right.
Like YEG? Cold Lake?Imagine if they had an airstrip capable of landing a C-17...
Does Val or Pet have airstrips that can accommodate a C-17? No, but they have airfields close by that can serve the same purpose. It might have been nice to keep that runway going but we are almost 30 years past that decision and it isn't gonna happen.
