The BCRY mandate is to provide rail service to all industries in and around Barrie and Collingwood. BCRY can either arrange for the construction of a rail siding directly into the customer's facility or alternatively provide transloading service from our team tracks in Barrie or Utopia and arrange truck delivery to the customer's operation.

BCRY currently provides daily rail service to shippers in the Barrie-Collingwood areas. BCRY operates two locomotives and employs five full-time and several part-time staff from an office and locomotive building at Utopia. BCRY provides rail service to customers at Utopia daily, to customers in Barrie on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and to customers in the Collingwood area on Tuesday and Thursday.

To improve the safety and operating efficiencies of the rail operations, the BCRY Partnership has completed a major track refurbishment program that has allowed an increase in trackage weight capacities and speed on key segments of the BCRY line. This refurbishment program ensures the long-term viability of direct rail service to industries located in the Barrie and Collingwood areas.
