This is Big Sky Rail.

⇣

Owned and operated by MobilGrain, BGS is a 250 mile railroad located in the west central region of Saskatchewan.

A Quick Introduction

Big Sky Rail (BGS) runs north and south from Delisle to Beechy, and east and west from Macrorie area to Laporte. BGS has a running rights agreement with CN, allowing our crews and equipment to interchange directly into Saskatoon’s CN Chappell Yard and providing access to our affiliate railroad, Last Mountain Railway (LMR).

With our close proximity to Saskatoon, we offer convenient storage solutions for empty oil tanks, potash, coal, and other types of railcars. Located in the heart of Saskatchewan’s best agriculture farmland, BGS takes local grain from multiple third-party facilities to markets across the globe.
