It sucks to be served by CP

The performance of CP Rail has been nothing short of terrible. Some observers say that CP has never really recovered since the washout of its mainline at Maple Creek last summer.
There have also been some avalanche issues over the winter. However, snow in the mountains is a usual occurrence. All the numbers show that CN has dramatically outperformed CP through the entire crop year.
Grain companies located on CP lines have been slow to receive cars and slow to even get contract calls and that has farmers on those lines way behind in their grain deliveries.
