Mr. Clay stated that the Company would begin railroad operations on July 19, 1987. The length of track is approximately 667 route miles, including 12 miles of trackage rights over the Soo Line. Mr. Clay indicated that the RRVW interchanges with the Burlington Northern Railroad Company at Breckenridge, Minnesota and Casselton, Jamestown and New Rockford, North Dakota; with the Dakota, Minnesota & Eastern at Oakes, North Dakota; and with the Soo Line at Carrington, Oakes and Sheldon, North Dakota. RRVW's major terminal points are Breckenridge, Minnesota; Jamestown, North Dakota; and New Rockford, North Dakota. The anticipated volume of traffic is approximately 20,000 cars per year.
