Saw this news update on the CN, thought it might be of interest. <br /> <br />LC <br /> <br />With 5,000 workers out, CN keeps rolling <br /> <br />In the fourth day of a strike by approximately 5,000 shopcraft, clerical, and intermodal yard employees, CN reported that business was at near normal levels under a contingency operating plan. That plan went into effect as employees represented by the Canadian Auto Workers Union walked out on Feb. 20 after failing to ratify new contracts negotiated by the company and the union. Court orders prevented picket lines from closing access to intermodal yards. The strike was not unexpected, and CN announced Feb. 19 that it would maintain normal freight schedules, with management employees performing CAW functions, though it warned that shippers might experience some delays. <br /> <br />From Railway Age <br />
