CBC News Alerts ‏@CBCAlerts 24m MT @TerryReithCBC The plan is to run cables through 6 rail cars on Cgy bridge; attach to piers so if bridge falls cars don't go downriver.

If we wind up with 5 cars worth of diesel in the Bow, how does that impact our water supply? Other than it being ****ed, of course.

So if there is a spill into the river is it better that its running so high? Easier to dilute, less parts per million sorta thing? (I know its still bad...I'm looking for a silver lining here)

20,000 lbs. Still need someone on the bridge to uncouple the cars and rig them up.

Doubt it. TSB rep on CBC Newsworld said they only get involved after an incident to review CPR's inspection reports. My dad is a retired engineer from CP transportation department, I'll ask him.
