at the plant April IS
After reserve stock was built

Tons of steel were used in the re-
finery's construction, in addition
to the Bareco refinery from Corpus

mantled and shipped by rail to
Prince Rupert.
From there it was shipped by
boat to Skagway, Alaska, and then
over the narrow gauge White Pass
and Yukon route 10 Whitehorse.
To assure that many of the huge
pieces of equipment would pass
through tunnels and around sharp
curves, wooden models were tested
on the flat cars before shipment of
the actual parts was attempted At
times creased planks were used to
ease equipment around sharp
curves
A power plant was dismantIed
at Hamilton, Ontario, and trans
ported over the same route.
