Curious case of costlier grain cars in Canada
A Vancouver study details that Canadian taxpayers paid up to $5,000 more per car for special 100 ton grain hopper cars than CPR did. The CPR and Wheat Board refuse to explain the discrepancy. National Steel Car says future orders may rise, while the Hamilton firm that built the cars declines to release figures. The study, prepared for a BC Royal Commission, cites CPR purchases of 353 cars for 11.4 million dollars at 32 295 dollars each, with a federal order for 2 000 more three months later.
