QUOTE: Originally posted by samfp1943 Is there a pattern to the problems of CN cutting back on their maintainence? Not only have they had problems in Canada, but the CN/IC wrecks down in Mississippi were, I think also laid at the feet of lack of good MOW proceedures. Read the January Trains and see what the CP employees have to indicate about what they think of their competitor and how it does things.

QUOTE: Originally posted by jchnhtfd CN got some surprises, though, when it took over the operation, one of which is directly relevant here: the state of the BC infrastructure was not as good as it had been thought to be, and certainly not up to the standards of the rest of CN, nor of CP.
