          Hop do you have a solution? By the looks of percentage hauled on a previous post there was a boost when the govt got involved last year. We now have nothing and crap service again. Cncpr pay 50 million to their lawyers per year. Could that not be put to service?

              CP,

              Last trip south we spent hours in both directions... figuring out EXACTLY what was allowed. It takes real determination and skill to satisfy all the ever growing regulatory burden... at the CDN US Border.

              It is great when one weaves and knits a solution... that is legal and goes well!

                  Hopperbin, not saying there has not been change.
                  Just that, from what I have seen, populist farmer tactic was to pressure governments to resist.
                  As to solution, suggest US type system where shippers bid for shipping service.
                  Do not hear about much US grain coming north, seems to go other way.

                    Fair comments but first there has to be a supply of cwrs to bid on.

                    Then, like shipping rates there should be an equivalent to the dry Baltic index for rail cars.

                    Should be one now that would help determine the need.

                          Hopper,

                          Shipping is not acceptable of this there is no doubt. CNCP need to understand what they are doing to the Writ of Execution they have put on all farms in western Canada... by shorting our system of locomotives... thereby allowing themselves to claim 100 percent capacity utilization.

                          It is about time we buy some locomotives to pull our grain hopper cars!!!
