Rich,
Not an unusable railway, one under construction. The new railway is
using all new track which is much wider than the old.
Thus putting down the new tracks requires the sea floor to be
leveled. Yes, dredging will have to be done, and yes it is
behind schedule a bit. However, once complete the all new railway
will have much greater capacity than the old and tired
one did.

That's encouraging. Better than our neighbouring club here in Halifax
which has a currently unusable marine railway. Apparently the new car
has trouble negotiating the old tracks and they may have to dredge...???

Here's a (sort of) daytime view from the webcam this morning; plenty
of ice still in the harbor, but it looks like the channel between the
mainland and Madeline Island (seen at the horizon in the background)
is starting to clear:
