CHICAGO — CN has completed construction of the first major rail connection built as part of the continuing integration of the Elgin, Joliet and Eastern Railway Company (EJ&E) that, when all connections are constructed, will enhance the fluidity of train movements along CN routes in the greater Chicago area, the railroad said.

MONTREAL — Claude Mongeau, president and chief executive officer of CN, said CN’s rise to rail industry leader from industry laggard in “one of the most profound transformations in Canadian business history” is the product of a compelling corporate vision, continual innovation and strong operational execution.

MONTREAL — CN said locomotive engineers working on the Company’s Northern Quebec Internal Short Line (NQISL) have ratified a new labour agreement.
