Canada’s Major Railways Maintain Good Grain Service: Ag Transport Coalition

CN and CPKC Rail supplied a combined 97% of hopper cars ordered in grain week 21, a modest decline from the 99% order fulfillment performance seen in week 20. 

The slight decline in performance reflects minor declines in performance for each of CN and CPKC. 

In supplying 98% of cars ordered by shippers in week 21 CN saw performance dip slightly from the 99% order fulfillment performance they posted in week 20. 

CN performance remains above the 90% performance threshold for the third consecutive week and the fifth time in the last six weeks. 

CPKC performance also declined slightly with the railway supplying 97% of shipper orders in week 21 – modestly lower than the 99% order fulfillment performance posted in week 20. 

CPKC performance remains above the 90% threshold for the 10th consecutive week.
