CN Granted Limited Petrel Junction Traffic By CTC
The Canadian Transport Commission allows CN to move four cars fertilizer and farm equipment and 15 grain cars into Neepawa via Petrel Junction with strict limits. Over the Neepawa line only, traffic requires permit filings and adherence to five conditions including speed restrictions on bridges and one mile south of Neepawa. CN may not service the Neepawa Russell line yet, and full restoration hinges on ongoing interline talks with CP and possible interchange at Neepawa. The plan aims to remove grain from the area, with projected train needs and dates pending line conditions and weather.
