Cando Completes Expansion of Sarnia Terminal
Written by Carolina Worrell, Senior Editor
Cando Rail & Terminals announced June 20 that it has successfully completed the expansion of its Cando Sarnia Terminal, which the Canadian-based rail service provider purchased in the spring of 2021.
According to Cando, the recently completed expansion increases railcar capacity from 85 spots to approximately 550 spots. Cando Sarnia Terminal, which is located on approximately 90 acres in the Sarnia Chemical Valley region and is directly serviced by CN off the CN St. Clair industrial spur, provides additional rail capacity to southern Ontario and expands the company’s national network.
The multi-purpose terminal offers services seven days per week for railcar staging for short- or long-term, loaded or empty railcars, as well as transloading numerous products to or from railcars. The terminal also has a two-track railcar repair shop and two-track railcar wash facility.
Cando is holding an official grand opening of Cando Sarnia Terminal this week with customers, contractors and local stakeholders touring the site.
Based in Brandon, Manitoba, Cando has grown from a small rail salvage company in 1978 to a leading international service provider of first- and last-mile rail service and terminal infrastructure. The company owns and operates 10 terminals and operates at more than 40 industrial railyards across North America.
