CN | Network Updates | Wild Fire in Jasper, AB

Tuesday, July 30, 2024

Dear Customer,

CN has issued following update to the industry:

We would like to update you on our mainline operation east of Jasper, AB on our Edson subdivision due to the wildfire last week.

We continue to recover our operating plan in our corridor through Jasper, Alberta. Please expect delays to and from the west coast as we plan to safely move staged trains and recover operations over the next several days.

Note for Domestic Intermodal:

To/From Vancouver (VIT) is currently fully operational, however there will be delays at Vancouver destination as we continue to work through the backlog of active trains, as well as inland origin terminal in gates that have not departed yet.

Note for International Intermodal: The below plan for all traffic destined to ports in British Columbia as we work through the backlog of staged trains and limited windows we can run trains through the impacted area:

Acceptance of reefer traffic has resumed, allocation will be provided to customers based on vessel cut off.
All export loaded traffic will be protected based on vessel cut offs from all Inland terminals.
Empty capacity is being reviewed daily and will be selectively granted based on specific port destination. Customers will be advised as capacity becomes available.

Please note that we continue to monitor the situation and will advise as new updates become available.

Sincerely,

HENSALL GLOBAL LOGISTICS
