These two shred piles total about 1500 tons or 15 railcar loads. We're only shredding 3 to 4 hours a day. That produces about 300 tons a day. But that's enough to keep up with available railcars.

This is a fully loaded railcar of shred. It is a dense material, weighing 70 to 80 pounds per cubic foot. That's why from the side at a distance you don't see the material in the car. This car is loaded to 284,000.

We were honored yesterday with a visit from Governor Kelly Armstrong, district Senator Dean Rummel and Dickinson Mayor Scott Decker.
The Governor had expressed an interest in our American Pulverizer car shredder and we invited him out to run a few car bodies through it.
He enjoyed operating the shredder and ran it for about 45 minutes and then operated a Caterpillar material handler for a few minutes.
