@mappingsupport Couldn’t get details on what it is other than “project cargo bound for Alberta.” The Duluth Port Seaway says the ship came over from China and South Korea, went through the Panama Canal, cruised the Atlantic up to the St. Lawrence Seaway and then over to Duluth. That’s kinda kickass.

@BrianJopek Gotta wonder how that cargo continues moving. Rail? Looks too long. That leaves trucking along US2 for the next leg - which would be a sight!

@mappingsupport From what I know, there will be some overland transportation
