Alter Metal in East Kingsford/Iron Mountain

Unread post by AARR »

Alter Metal in East Kingsford/Iron Mountain recently expanded their siding to stage 10 cars at a time. See Jason Asselin's video at :40.

When they were Schneider Iron & Metal they would ship a few cars a week on a short spur that was buried in dirt/mud but under Alter have significantly increased rail shipments. Most of the cars seem to go to CN at Pembine which makes me think they might end up at Algoma Steel in Sault Ste. Marie. But that's just a guess on my part.
PatC created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to see Don Simon no more they want AARR I'm chopped liver, well if you want AARR this is what I'll give ya, bad humor mixed with irrelevant info that'll make you roll your eyes quicker than a ~Z~ banhammer...
