Canadian iron-ore miner completes rail line


advertisement

Consolidated Thompson Iron Mines Ltd. recently completed a 19-mile rail line from Bloom Lake to Wabush in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.

The provincial government has granted the company an operating permit to move unit trains of iron ore on the route, which connects to an existing rail line between Wabush mine installations and the Quebec North Shore & Labrador Railway.

The Bloom Lake Railway — which was incorporated in Newfoundland and Labrador — will own and operate Consolidated Thompson’s line.
