Everytime hunter talks at a rail confrence, or we "CP" give our finacials to the community, he says within the next 3-5 years there will be major rail consolidation, due to capacity issues and the need to move frieght by rail doubling by 2025-2030. You goto CPR.CA and listen to some of the...

Its a way that Cp dosent have to pay the DME, CP rates to run trains further. Something wierd has been brewing in Portage as well, I think Cp also wants the DME to help run trains on the tomah and river subs because CP is soooo short man power outta the cities and portage. Why should CP pay soo line...

I'd say 1/3 of our capex budget went towards ctc. lighting will make it stop working, ctc all thru the dakotas into humbolt yard. there is still some ABS on the line maybe 8-10 mile streches west outta b-ville. Calgary came up with a plan that goes against our contract saying that all trains bound f...

the empty grain, oil, ethanol goes 50/50 west and north out of b-ville, all road work done west gets switched in nahant or savanna and then decided. a lot of the KC traffic goes down the river sub from st paul and then thru the DME ICE lines, we take over maybe 2-3 KCS trains and run them up to st p...

How is the condition of CP's line between Bensenville and Savanna, ILL? Is this line primarily rely jointed rail or welded rail? Does this line have CTC, ABS or is it dark territory? Is it mostly single track now? As of the first of this year all CTC, single line starts somewhere a little past big ...

How does the CP line to Kansas City compare with its competitors? It seems like the weak sister and a bottleneck for a CP-KCS merger when compared with the BNSF and UP routes, but maybe I'm missing something in terms of grades or other operational constraints. Its not the best line we own, old ic&a...

Again speculation but it seems more and more top level management making trips to KC and S port la, and vice versa for KCS managers. http://business.financialpost.com/2014/03/03/cp-rail-should-considering-kansas-city-southern-acquistion-analyst/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I honestly think, the Soo line, the DME and all the ICE lines will be up for sale by the time this is all said and done, i work out of St paul and have never in my entire career seen CP turining and dropping bussiness as they have been in the past 6 months, another carrier such as UP will probally s...

Harrison also sought to dismiss speculation that Calgary-based Canadian Pacific, the country’s second-largest railroad, would be interested in buying Kansas City Southern. (KSU) Benoit Poirier, an analyst at Desjardins Capital Markets in Montreal, wrote in a May 14 note to clients that Canadian Paci...

you can get bumped anywhere on the old IC "illinois central" line, Cn split districts by what mergers they aquired ie: grand trunk, wisconsin southern, and illinois central, etc. they gave those guys prior rights. My buddy just left CP for the CN, hired outta Greenbay, has to drive all the...

I wouldnt know anything about the canadian side of CP, what kind of Contract they have between the union and the company, im sure if they tried to buy us out of this one, and gave us the one the CN has, we would be able to do that, but for now just a ton of dumb rules and regs being implemented to g...

nope they are just shutting down yards now, they just axed humbolt in minneapolis, they cant make us run longer until we get a new contract, they are just dowsizing yards left and right in superior we have 5 guys left, axed em in glenwood, well everywhere bud, are road crews still have the same runs...

All we know in St. Paul is that 600 miles or so are for sale of the DM&E all west of Tracy Mn into the dakotas and that little part of wyoming, we run NS power all the way from the Harvey and Enderlin to elkhart in, we dont hear a peep about the D&H, I attended a townhall meeting held by Hun...

Bershire Hathaway made an offer to buy out pershing square capital, to try and save Bill Ackman for his losings in JC penny and herbalife, Pershing square declined the offer so far. CP put up 600 miles of the DM&E for sale and when BHP Billition put in an offer CP pull it out from the market. I ...
