A while back you mentioned something about opportunities to haul pipe to Alaska, or other places.
At the time I owned the step deck I am pulling now but I wasn't pulling it. Now I am. If you have a number or anything for me to contact someone about pipeline loads could ya please let me know?

It won't be for a while yet. Pipe will probably be coming by ship from Japan like they did for the Alyeska line. Or at least from Canadian and USA pipe mills such as IPSCO.
It would be loaded out of Portland, Seattle and Vancouver BC.
The southern leg of the poipe will come out of Regina Saskatchewan and be railed as far as Fort Nelson BC and trucked from there.
But there will be a lot of loads on equipment, parts, coating, rockshield, etc. etc.
I would say that the start of the line is at least a couple of years away.
Read the attcahed link as to the progress.
