I haven't seen it mentioned elsewhere in this forum, but I am wondering how the potential sale could impact TTX since Pan Am is one of the nine shareholders of the company.

So the question remains: what future traffic will CP opt to interchange with PAS/G&W to use the vital Hoosac Tunnel ?Likely nothing more than they do now. Not many synergies with CP customers and traffic on the B&M now that they don't own the D&H south...

A few upgrades and Portland could become a significant feeder port. That's got to factor in somehow.I was driving down by the waterfront last fall and found that one of the "harbor side" grade crossings had been upgraded to gates. I am not sure exactly what they've done around there in the last couple of years, but those signals definitely didn't use to be there – I'd bet it was a crossbuck a few years ago.
