Canadian Pacific says it will reopen its rail link with the Port of Vancouver on Tuesday, vowing to clear backlogs to “get the supply chain back in sync.”

Air Canada is adding cargo capacity equivalent in weight to 860 adult moose in and out of Vancouver.

CP and CN rail service at the Port of Vancouver could resume this week as mounting congestion and backlogs continue after devastating floods and landslides.

The Port of Vancouver warns of terminal disruptions and vessel delays after flooding in British Columbia cuts off CN and CP rails.

Truckers will hit delays trying to get around flooded areas of the Pacific Northwest and British Columbia.

Truckers will face delays in the Pacific Northwest due to storms over the next several days (video forecast included).

The Transportation Safety Board of Canada has determined that there is no link between July’s devastating fire in Lytton and sparks coming from CN or Canadian Pacific trains.

Customers’ push to manage inventories will support rail volumes in the second half of the year, even though potential headwinds in the form of wildfires, supply chain congestion and COVID-19 loom.

With 39 ships at anchor, the Port of Vancouver is continuing to feel the strain as CP and CN resume service in a fire-afflicted region of British Columbia.

The reduction in train speeds between Kamloops and Boston Bar is designed to lessen the chances that sparks from a freight train could start a fire amid extreme heat and dry conditions.

A disruption to CN and CP rail service caused by a wildfire is putting the Port of Vancouver under pressure as Maersk and Hapag-Lloyd warn of delays and congestion.

An off-duty trucker charged with smuggling 13 bricks of cocaine from the U.S. to Canada via car was acquitted after maintaining that the drugs were planted while he was aiding a fellow driver with a repair at a rest stop.

The railway has started reaching out to First Nations groups and the broader public to share its plan.

A trucker could face life in prison after being charged with trafficking almost 200 pounds of meth, likely worth millions of dollars, from the U.S. to Canada.

“This outperformance once again demonstrates that we are in the right locations, and a focus on origin and destination cargo will continue to deliver the right balance between growth and resilience,” Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem says.

The railway is working on infrastructure improvements amid lower market demand because of the coronavirus.

British Columbia seeks to ramp up its export capacity of propane at Canadian west coast ports, and CN is the only Class I railway serving the Port of Prince Rupert.

Purchase of Canadian port operations part of global strategy “to connect directly with customers to offer logistics solutions and remove inefficiencies in the supply chain to accelerate trade.”

Protestors’ actions to block rail routes are causing major supply chain disruptions, they say.

Demonstrators say their actions, which have blocked rail lines and access to several Canadian ports, are in support of a First Nations group’s concerns over a proposed pipeline.
