Could be an interesting day watching how this system may develop while having a rum watching the Stoon Richie sale at neighbours shop.

furrow, did you get much rain or snow over this past weekend? I've heard Mart/Warman had a foot or so of wet snow with rain to boot.

Are you looking for moisture up your way?

**furrowtickler** · Mar 23, 2015, 08:03

Ya we had a good shot here 5-6 in- not needed at all.
Anymore and we are going to be very wet for a while. We are white again with all sloughs full. Run off was almost done here, just 10-20 miles north melting / runoff was just starting .

Hope it stays to the south...Run off here had not started, we still have about 70% original snow cover. Just walked the fence, and it is thigh deep where it never blew.

White AGAIN? lol, we always were and still are.

Better stay south of 16 or 5.

I think your birdie has been whispering sweet nothings in your ears.
The hoppercars are pooled in the gov fleet.
CNCP have first right of refusal we were told years ago... Which was one reason the cars were not given to the rail car coalition.
Someone is baiting you... The railways would fight to the supreme court to get those railcars...even if they say they don't want them.
In 2014 those graincars were all upgraded at gov expense.

And ritz has indicated that they are not worth much. But the railways will go to the Supreme Court to get them.

Probably use court costs to pay for them

Kill 2 birds with one stone. Hey Tom.

Bucket
When maximizing shareholder values is at stake... Anything goes for CNCP.

If you had first dibs wouldn't you do exactly the same negotiations?

The cheaper the cars are the more profit to be made!!!

**sawfly** · Mar 23, 2015, 11:01

your govt. tom.
who are they working for again.

**bucket** · Mar 23, 2015, 12:06

But tom,

Ritz represent the taxpayers. He should trying to maximize the returns on those cars.

Won't let a farmer group own and control them but he will give them to railways.

Seems odd. Good prerequisite to a board seat hey?
