Barrie Collingwood Railway

The Barrie Collingwood Railway (BCRY) provides rail car transportation and switching service for customers of the City of Barrie and area.   The BCRY, Cando's first registered short-line operation, began operations on January 26, 1998.

The BCRY services a rapidly growing industrial area and commodities shipped including grain and lumber products, clays, chemicals and industrial products.

BCRY interchanges traffic with CP Rail, a Class 1 Railway connected directly to the North American Rail network. BCRY and CP staff will work with local industries to evaluate railway shipping options to reduce freight costs and improve the bottom line. BCRY staff would be most interested in working with you to evaluate the benefits of railway shipments to support your business.
