Remote yard monitoring in Brandon

Local and live

Where Highway 10 meets the Trans-Canada

Brandon sits where the Trans-Canada Highway crosses Highway 10, with both CPKC and CN running yards through the city, and Cando Rail & Terminals is headquartered in Brandon. Three miles west of the city on Highway 1, the Trans-Canada Industrial Park offers fifteen serviced lots ranging from about 3.9 to 8 acres each, with natural gas and three-phase power already in place. Maple Leaf Foods has run a pork processing plant in the city since 1999, adding truck traffic for the industrial park and the rest of Brandon's industrial area. Grain, machinery and food products move through the city's yards on their way to the rest of the Prairies.

Equipment left outside overnight draws attention. In November 2025, RCMP said a skid steer and a cargo trailer were taken from a property north of Brandon near Provincial Road 270 and Highway 1; the search that followed turned up roughly $150,000 in recovered property, including a second utility trailer and a boat and trailer, with investigators linking the items to thefts across the Brandon and Westman area going back to 2021. Equipment missing from a lot like that can go unnoticed for months when nobody's watching closely enough to catch it the night it happens.

A live Sigma agent is on every camera at a Brandon yard around the clock, every day of the year, including the overnight hours when a contractor's lot or trailer yard would otherwise sit empty. When AI detection picks up a person or vehicle near the equipment, the agent is already looking: a live, instant talk-down goes out over the site's speakers within moments, and police or your own team get the call next. Yard Operations keeps a running log of which trucks and trailers are on the lot, with damage inspections and parking reports to match.
