With direct service and connections with short line railroads in the Bakken Shale region, we are the only rail carrier providing single line haul service between the Bakken and major crude oil markets in the Northeastern United States.
Working with companies on both sides of the border, CP is using its proven capabilities in transporting crude oil by rail to deliver product from the Bakken to refineries and other facilities throughout North America.
CP’s location in the heart of the Bakken Shale also provides access for shippers and receivers of other oil fields related products such as:
- frac sand
- steel pipe
- other oil field tubular products
- aggregrates
- chemicals
- fuel condensate
- construction materials
- dimensional cargo
