Cando Rail Services develops Parkland Fuel Corporation’s Hamilton terminal

Cando Rail Services has spent two years worked with Parkland Fuel Corporation to develop an advanced railcar direct-to-truck fuel terminals.

The Hamilton, Ontario facility was designed and built by Cando, who also operates it for Parkland and it is the first facility of its kind to be built to Ontario’s new Environmental Standards for air emissions. It is also one of the first to offer railcar to truck blending of E-10 Gasoline.

Director, Supply Logistics and Operations with Parkland, Shane Boschman said: “This is a highly competitive business and a highly regulated one. We have very high standards and Hamilton was a complex project, so we needed a sophisticated partner to help us develop the facility.”

Cando is one of the leading rail services companies in Canada, with operations across the country servicing a broad cross section of industries. The company had already developed and demonstrated the transloading technology that would make this site deliver on efficiency and environmental safety.

Shane said: “This terminal gives us an edge because we can now source product from pretty much anywhere in North America, have consistency of supply and efficiently have it loaded onto trucks and out to our retail network.”
