Also it was sold to the private sector rather than canceled so takeaway capacity didn’t really change. That said once we were losing money I would have kept it as it would have provided competition against CP/CN for space once we have excess takeaway so should have reduced price for rail takeaway vs the oligopoly
Once it was a sunk cost I think it should have been kept.
