CBR: crude-by-rail.
North Dakota oil producers are making greater use of rail tanker cars to send their crude to refineries.
At least 10 railroad oil loading terminals are either operating or planned for western North Dakota.
By the end of the year they'll be capable of shipping close to 400,000 barrels of oil each day.

NuStar/EOG building 70,000 CBR facility in Louisiana to handle shale oil
NuStar and EOG have entered into a definitive agreement to jointly develop and own a 70,000-barrel-a-day unit train offloading facility in Louisiana to support crude oil transport from various US shale plays.

The rail offloading facility will be built at NuStar's crude oil terminal in St. James, Louisiana, facilitating movement and storage of crude oil production from the Bakken and Eagle Ford Shales, as well as other emerging oil shale plays in the US.

The 8-million-barrel St. James crude oil terminal has interconnectivity to major crude infrastructure, including onshore and offshore pipeline systems, as well as marine, truck and rail access.
