I know in the past there has always been canadien ships loading in u.s. ports but it seems to be this year to be way more. The michipicoren has been on a steady run to the soo with ore from the twin ports and there is always a backlog of canadien ships loading out of superior and two harbors going to ,Quebec and nanticoke. At least it seems way more than I ever remember.
I would have to agree. Currently in Superior the CSL Assiniboine is loading at BNSF with the Algoma Niagara, Spruceglen and Oakglen all waiting for the dock.
