Calgary, Mexico, St Paul & Pacific?
Kansas City, Mexico & St Lawrence?
Gulf, Montreal & Alberta?
Montreal, Mexico & Pacific?
I believe the merged CN-BNSF system was going to be called North American Railways and at any rate CN still owns the NAR reporting mark (they acquired the Northern Alberta Railway in 1980), which they resurrected for some company service equipment about 10 years ago.
The initials of Canada-U.S.-Mexico may have an unpleasant connotation.

-an Articulate Malcontent
Clickbait title intentional. But I am talkign about the name.
I read an article awhile back sayign that BNSF and CSX need to have more descriptive names. Now these guys are dogin the same thing.
You have created a massive railroad that spans three countries and much of an entire continent and THIS is the best they can come up with? I get name recognition but....
So here are my proposals:
Arctic & Gulf
Canadian-American-Mexican (CAM Railways)
Great Central Railway
Great Midland Railway
North American RR Co. Ltd.
I understand that these two companies oth have enough heritage under their belt that no one wants to lose the name recognition, but this just sounds a bit lazy to me.
Thoughts on the name? On my proposals? In general?
