I have a bit of an update about the rolling stock piled up at IPSCO. Yesterday I was in Regina and decided to drive around the area and see if anything had changed. Well, it certainly did. The very large area where all those cars were is now completely empty! I suppose that they've all been scrapped. There were about five truckless IMC potash hoppers sitting by the piles of scrap as well as a few other cars still sitting in another area, but it's nothing compared to the hundreds that were there before. I'm glad that I got pictures of them before. <br /> <br />Something that does have me worried, though, is that when I was last there there was an old NP heavyweight baggage car sitting on a siding. I've mentioned this before on the forums. It was away from where the other cars were and was complete and sitting on the track, which lead me to believe that it was perhaps there for some other reason. I really hope that this never got scrapped! I wonder what ever did happen to it.
