The first 177 of 531 custom built rail cars have arrived at potash project developer K+S Potash Canada's (KSPC's) $4.1-billion Legacy mine site, in Saskatchewan. The company on Monday said this was enough to complete one of three trains that will transport KSPC’s product to its potash handling and storage facility in Port Moody, British Columbia. “The arrival of these rail cars demonstrates how close we are to production, which is expected to begin in the second quarter of this year. To see them here, branded with our company name and ready to carry our first marketable product, is really exciting,” KSPC president and CEO Dr Ulrich Lamp stated.
