    Under 600000 tonnes

    For weekly movement and 2.5 mmt of boats.....that means someone is behind schedule.


    2 - 30000 tonne facilities within an hour that can load 100 plus cars are plugged waiting for cars from two weeks ago....and still calling in January contracts....

    A functioning market??


    Nothing to see here folks.... move along.

    I'm still waiting to haul a pea contract out from Nov.
    The same excuses are being used.

      Road bans will be on soon which will coincide with the yearly free up of system capacity

            CN has been doing well this year, elevators on CP less so.

            Elevators in western MB been having cars spot up to a week in advance. Should see some more demand from the elevators soon if movement is this good.

              Wakopa delivers to Paterson. Paterson sits across the track from Richardsons. Richardsons get no trains and blame CP. Paterson gets lots of trains and grain moves. Richardsons logistics may be more to blame than CP.

                Are you getting paid a penalty from elev for non movement like system was supposedly set up.

                  I do believe our system still quite inefficient. Various reasons. Some areas really suffer. Even here, basis levels show it often enough. However movement here is normally rather good. CP line. Disclosure, blessed with delivery points. Forward sell a third to half main crops. Specialties all gone at once when price hits. Stopped buying bins when bord left. Never in career sat with fall delivery priced inventory in March. Good luck.
