Cat-Train
(Cat-Train is a slang word meaning sleighs pulled by bulldozers during the winter to carry all freight to a remote site in the Arctic)

"Cat-Train" is sometimes the only means of transporting equipment to a site located far inland	Scouting the best route for the Cat-Train is essential	Everything must be carried to the site; even the fuel for heavy equipment	Travelling from Sanirajak (Hall Beach) to CAM-F DEW Line site: more than 100 km through tundra
An igloo is still an excellent shelter during bad weather conditions
