Even if you only put in one or two 1000-count cables in there, there wold be plenty of capacity, and probably enough room to send a crew of three in there to repair any breaks.

The other question would be if the path would be useful for internet traffic. Me thinks the better bet would be an east/west line would carry more traffic than any north/south lines.

Assuming you could sell it at $50 per strand mile, would it be more profitable to transport oil or light?

The Keystone pipeline is 30" in diameter and 1744 miles long. At 100% fill ratio thats 698 1" 864 ct ribbon fibers for a total of 603,072 fibers or 1,051,757,568 strand miles. We can't get 100% fill so lets just call it one billion strand miles. Even if we discount and charge $25 per strand-mile, we could still walk away with 25B per month.

Phase III can do 700,000 bpd. I have no clue what one charges to transport oil, but lets call it 10%. At $53 per barrel, thats 174M per month.

Fiber wins.

    I'd venture to say you may be able to put a bunch of fiber in
    them and transport maple syrup.
    I'd invest.

        Wait for them to build Trump’s 2 oil pipelines and discover
        Canadian shale oil is too expensive.  Buy the pipelines for
cents on the dollar, and use them to transport maple syrup. Even if there’s a spill, how bad can that be?

        Hmmm, maybe I ought to create a fragrance...

        I’ll call it “Allen Bradley”. Fragrance for tech pros.

        the scent of pizza)

        I also read their biggest money maker now is not the books,
        or streaming, or any other crap they sell in their store.

        It's AWS.  Which started out as a side thing they were doing.

        It's like if an ISP started selling books on the side, and
        the book business took off better than the ISP.
