Description:
  • A small look at the biggest yard in town - CN's Toronto Yard. The yard is CN's largest single reception and distribution point in Canada, handling millions of express packages, tons of freight and scores of containers on a daily basis. The terminal building - Concord Terminal - is so huge that supervisors use bicycles to get from one section to another. A look at THE BIGGEST YARD IN TOWN is a look at the massiveness of CN's merchandise handling capabilities. <5min>
