The facility has built roughly 6,500 feet of rail line, which was built on the southwestern side of Weyburn. The other evidence of a new business is a small office building.
Operations general manager for Weyburn Industrial Transload Carter Stewart, said the required rail line has been built and after some test runs and ensuring the computer system works, the facility will open.
Stewart, along with his father Blair, operated Stewart Southern Railway, a short line based in Fillmore that runs from Stoughton to Regina, since its inception 10 years ago but neither is still involved in the day-to-day operation.
The facility is designed to transfer commodities off or on to rail that might otherwise have difficulty accessing that mode of transport.
There could be opportunities to do rail car cleaning, repair and inspection, as well as locomotive service.
Stewart declined to say how much the new venture cost the partners.
