Yes i've heard of the Edmund Fitzgerald (it sank in a storm) but I had heard that the great lakes are shallow in regard to being no more than 200ft deep so ships have to have a shallow draft and most importantly, large ocean going bulk carriers have difficulty getting through the locks to access the St Lawrence river. <br />When BNSF and UP start running the bulk ore trains to the west, where is there final destination and is it a similar operation to what the WC and SP started in the early to mid 90's. <br /> <br />http://julian-sprott.fotopic.net/
