As large gas plants in Alberta began to accumulate large stockpiles
of solid sulphur, the gas companies formed a sulphur marketing
group, called Sultran, charged with selling this form of sulphur to
the world market. Each gas plant has/had a flood loader capable
of loading 100+ car unit trains made up of Sultran’s bathtub and
4000 cu. ft. gondolas.
