The major one is Ultramar, which receives 17-tank car sets of fuel from the refinery outside Quebec City. LaFarge Cement receives some cars in the summer, and Weyerhauser ships wood out in boxcars. Sometimes they spot boxcars or gondolas behind the mall for loading or unloading.<BR/><BR/>Recently the NBEC has taken to parking their engines overnight either at Ultramar or at the Chatham mall.
