05 Outubro 2023 - 4:00PM
CN (TSX: CNR) (NYSE: CNI) published its 2023-2024 Winter Plan. The
document outlines the actions CN has taken to meet customer demand
safely and efficiently during the winter months ahead.
“Winter conditions bring unique challenges to
every part of the supply chain, from production to market. CN’s
Winter Plan seeks to anticipate those challenges, mitigate their
impact, and facilitate quick recovery. But the resiliency and
reliability of Canada’s end-to-end supply chain require us all to
work together – coordinating our planning and aligning our
execution. The Canadian economy, our customers, and Canada’s
position as a reliable trading partner need and expect this level
of collaboration.”
- Tracy Robinson, Chief Executive
Officer, CN
This year’s Winter Plan is focused on working
safely, collaborating to meet the demands of customers, improving
network performance and enhancing network resiliency.
Highlights of New Initiatives in
2023-2024 Winter Plan:
- Enhancing the scheduled
operating plan: The operating plan CN launched in 2022
delivered the best railcar velocity since 2016 and strong,
consistent traffic movement. The company expects further
enhancements to the plan will deliver incremental
improvements.
- Locomotive
initiatives: The addition of 57 high-horsepower
locomotives last October, the modernization of 60 DC-traction
locomotives, and CN’s locomotive reliability initiative are
expected to support a more reliable and more fuel and carbon
efficient fleet.
- Rolling stock
acquisition: CN added 800 new high-capacity boxcars and
500 high-efficiency hoppers cars in 2023. A further 750 new
hopper cars will join the fleet in 2024.
- People: Staff
resourcing for 2023-24 will be in line with anticipated customer
demand.
