CN has moved more than 2.96 million metric tons of grain from Western Canada, setting a new record for March and achieving our highest-ever first-quarter results for grain movement.

Weekly volumes exceeded 600,000 tons for two consecutive weeks, peaking at over 650,000 tons, reflecting robust network performance and demand across the West Coast and eastern corridors.

CN quickly restored network velocity following late-month weather events that temporarily impacted terminal capacity in Vancouver and the Prince Rupert corridor. That efficient recovery, along with record export demand and the seasonal reopening of the Port of Thunder Bay, enabled CN to achieve this new March record.

CN also said it remains focused on executing its winter operations plan across the network.
