And there is where the crux of the issue is. Cost, if we could rail head everything from Edmonton to van. It would be a lot cheaper then a massive convoy of low beds.

Rail head would take along time to get things going. I think someone on here awhile ago stated Edmonton Garrison no longer has rail service on the base. So they would have to transport the equipment to the rail yard, then cross load onto the train.

My point is that we can move a lot of equipment in a fairly short amount of time if required.
