Do not some of the CSL ships take coal from Thunder Bay to Nova Scotia ?

Yes, the Thunder Bay does these trips for CSL

[Denny]

The Baie st paul has been strengthened along with the Thunder Bay for east coast trading. The BSP is the salt boat running from the Mine, the Thunder Bay has taken more of the Atlanic Huron/Erie trades of stone and gypsum for the east coast.

There is a new Build in the works aswell in china that is planned to take this run whenever that may be

[Wallacio]

The Baie St. Paul makes that run now.

I think the poster is referring to the recent Chinese builds starting with Baie St. Paul. It is currently on one of the Salarium's old runs delivering salt to Newfoundland. It was upgraded a few years ago to Nova Scotia class. Thunder Bay is on its way to Hamilton from Halifax so it also has been upgraded. Possibly the others have been or are going to be upgraded.

I think we're just referencing the existing Trillium class vessels?
Wasn't the Thunder Bay the last to be upgraded this past winter at Bayship?

Besides, my vessel tracking has been showing the Baie St. Paul running out of Mag most of the season.

[MattJ]

A couple of the trillium class have already been upgraded. Baie Comeau ran couple trips out of Maggies last winter before drydock at Les Machins.

When is this vessel due in North America?

Wasn't one of the Trilliums upgraded this winter? Whitefish Bay or Baie St Paul it seems

[Guest]

Weren't all the Trillium-class self-unloaders modified to Nova Scotia-class? They could handle the salt runs.

[Denny]

I would be interested in knowing, seeing and find out the statistics and the length and width of this new ship along with IMO and call sign.

A new Chinese build was upgraded to Nova Scotia Class to run the salt from Mag island

Who will do the salt now ?? Still CSL with another vessel or did it get re-bid...
