Mixed results for week 7 grain deliveries by Canada's major railways: Ag Transport Coalition

The Ag Transport Coalition says system order fulfillment performance declined last week, with CN and CPKC Rail combined, supplying 90% of shipper orders, a decline from the 94% performance seen the prior week.

This reflects improved performance for CN and a decline in performance for CPKC.

System performance remains at 90% or better for a fourth consecutive week.

In supplying 90% of cars ordered by shippers in week 7, CN saw performance improve from the 88% order fulfillment performance seen in week 6.

CN performance reaches the 90% performance threshold for the first time in ten weeks.

Meanwhile, in supplying 89% of shipper orders last week, CPKC performance declined notably from the 98% order fulfillment performance seen the prior week.

CPKC performance falls below the 90% performance threshold for the first time in twenty weeks.
