  • Alaska Railroad And Alaska To Alberta Railway Agree To Cooperate On Rail Connection To Canada, Lower 48

    The Alaska Railroad Corporation (ARRC) and the Alaska to Alberta Railway Development Corporation (A2A) have established a Master Agreement of Cooperation toward building a 1500-mile connection between the Alaska Railroad and Canadian railroads that also serve the Lower 48 states. The agreement was announced after approval by the Alaska Railroad Corporation Board of Directors on June 27th. Under the terms, the two railroad companies will cooperate in applying to the Alaska Department of Natural Resources for a right-of-way guaranteed under state law for a rail connection to Canada. In addition, the two firms will develop a joint operating plan which will specify not only the new track needed to connect Alaska’s rail to Canada, but will also identify work needed to upgrade existing rail facilities, bridges, and track on the Alaska Railroad’s 512-mile mainline which runs from Seward to North Pole, Alaska.

  • Modern Crane Commissions Canada’s First Demag AC 300-6 All Terrain Crane

    Milton, Ontario based Modern Crane received Canada’s first Demag  AC 300-6 all terrain crane. The company purchased the new crane from Terex Cranes distributor, Cropac Equipment, and plans to use it to assemble tower cranes. Modern Crane is a division of the Pumpcrete Corporation, which is highly active in the heavy lifting, concrete pumping sectors, heavy haul and transportation.

    According to Modern Crane VP of Sales, Aaron Hanna, the Demag AC-300 -6 all terrain crane’s long main boom was a crucial feature in the company’s decision. “The crane has the reach we need, and it is easy to set up on job sites where there are potentially impeding obstacles.”

    Mark Williams, Modern Crane’s owner, went on to say that the new Demag all terrain crane will give the company a significant advantage in the market place. “It features the latest in crane technology that will help our team work more efficiently, and we consider Demag to be the pinnacle of heavy lifting cranes on the market” he explained. Some of the features Williams is referring to include the Demag single-engine concept with an intelligent motor management system to help reduce maintenance expenses, and IC-1 Plus control system with asymmetric outrigger positioning that allows the AC 300-6 to perform jobs usually reserved for larger machines.
