2023年8月2日 - 1:00AM
CN (TSX: CNR) (NYSE: CNI) today published its 2023-2024 Grain Plan,
www.cn.ca/grain which builds on the operational improvements
introduced this crop year.
“We at CN know that Canada's agricultural
industry has always been the cornerstone of our nation's economy,
contributing significantly to its growth and stability. Through the
collaborative efforts of CN and our supply chain partners, we aim
to optimize the movement of agricultural goods efficiently and
sustainably. Together, we can navigate the challenges ahead,
capitalize on new opportunities, and ensure the continued success
and prosperity of the Canadian agricultural sector.”
- Tracy Robinson,
chief executive officer, CN
The new Grain Plan contains several new actions
and initiatives for 2023-24 as well as details on ongoing
initiatives. These include the delivery of 750 new high-efficiency
grain hopper cars in 2024, the expansion of CN’s locomotive
modernization program to upgrade older Alternating Current
locomotives to the newer, more powerful and reliable Direct Current
technology, and a new Precision Dispatch System to help optimize
train movement across the network.
CN will also standardize the improved
coordination and execution established between network and field
operations this year. CN’s staff resourcing for 2023-24 will be in
line with anticipated customer demand. It will also account for new
government regulations related to personal leave days and sick days
that are expected to impact labour availability.
CN’s annual Grain Plan is prepared through
extensive consultation with, and input from, key stakeholders,
including the CN Agricultural Advisory Council – a group of western
Canadian farmers and industry leaders. The plan reviews CN’s
performance during the last crop year and assesses the company’s
ability to move anticipated levels of grain during the upcoming
crop year. It also explains specific steps CN is taking to ensure
it has the capacity to move grain safely and efficiently on behalf
of farmers, customers, and supply chain partners.
