PCS New Brunswick owns a potash mine in Penobsquis, outside Sussex. The product from the mine is taken by CN to Saint John to the Potasco wharf.
It has a fairly sizable yard at the plant that connects to the CN main line outside Sussex.
PCS New Brunswick acquired a “new” locomotive, number 92-019 in early April 2006. It is an SW900, formerly Canac 400, and formerly CN 7253 before that.
Previous to that, they owned one locomotive, a GE 70-ton locomotive #18 built by GE in September 1950. As of May 2006 it was still on the property.
