As far as I'm concerned CN outbid UP when they sent out the memo saying they no longer want any of their employees to refer to CN as Canadian or Canadian National, just CN.

At least UP is pround of their country.

I'm mad too about how the Canadian National took over the Wisconsin Central. That was my favorite railroad! [:(!]

They took over the Wisconson Central.[V]

Go easy on CP, at least they don't mind being Canadian unlike CN.....
It's nice to be able to call them "Canadian Pacific" and not worry about getting repremanded by the management.

And their beautiful golden beaver logo makes me pround that they are happy to be who they are, and not trying to get away from it, unlike CN. [tdn]

Ultimately, I wouldn't be totally surprised to see two major railroads left in the US!

CN and CP.

Exactly, you'll be able to go from Alaska to the Gulf of Mexico nearly exclusively on CN trackage.

Talk about a North/South connection.

CN (Chicago Northern) is really just one American railway buying up yet more American and Canadian railways. Nothing more, nothing less. Signal Mechanic. Signal Department. Former 'Canadian National Railways'.[:(][V]

Have any of you trainfans noticed that CN has bought so much track that they extend to the Gulf of Mexico. CN seems to have interest in the resources we have here in the US. CN might just make it in South America in some time. Tell me what you think about CN Mergers to the Gulf Coast. [?]
