CN Rail Sets New Record For Grain Movement

CN Rail has set a new record for the movement of Canadian grain and processed grain products via carload with over 31 million metric tonnes moved during the 2020-2021 crop year.

This record exceeds the previous record for carload movement of 29.4 million metric tonnes set in the 2019 - 2020 crop year.

CN also moved over 1.1 million metric tonnes of grain from western Canada via containers, with grain volumes moved from eastern Canada in addition to these levels.

CN also filed and published its 2021-2022 grain plan last week.
