Hensall and District Co -Op is building a new $rain and fertilizer storage facility in order to increase rail traffic busi- ness as part of a bid to preserve CN's commitment to rail service in the arca. Canadian National Railway dis- continued service on the rail line between Exeter and London earlier this year, citing a lack of custom- ers on that route. Local officials have been concerned further cut- backs may remove South Huron County from rail service altogeth- er, thus leaving no alternative but to rely on road transportation. Earl Wagner, general manager of - the Hensall Co -Op, explained that • the new storage domes and a matching conveyor arc part of a plan to not only become a fertilizer distributor for the arca, but also to increase the use and profitability of CN's line. "The idea is to have increased rail traffic and revenue to support the line," said Wagner. The project should also benefit farmers by keeping fertilizer costs down. At present, rail traffic north of Dashwood Industries is all routed through Kitchener. Areas to the south arc without rail service. "It's an investment, really," said Wagner, adding that a risk is taken if the line eventually closes any- way. . Two domes were built last fall. Two more arc presently under con- struction, along with a 200 -foot pivoting conveyor to off-load ferti- lizer from the railway. Potash is shipped from Saskatchewan and phosphates and urea are imported from the U.S. gulf. At present, the cost of the pro- ject totals more than $1.25 mil- lion, and room is still available for a fifth dome should it be needed. "It should be good for the arca, the total arca" said Wagner. Without this storage facility, all fertilizer would have to be distrib- uted by truck from either Putnam or Hamilton.
