I assume what they meant was $8B for 16th Avenue to Shepard with the available funding now only enough to go from Eau Claire to Ogden.


The 2015 report mentioned that they looked at a few other sites in the SE, with a focus on CP lands in Ogden. It was probably rejected at the time because it was much more expensive and had less LRV storage capacity than Shepard.

Just random factoids to make a rumour seem plausible.
