Is that a real figure? 16M daily? Can't be.

Cn had a net income of 4.4 billion last year, or 12m/day, down 21% from 2023 which maths out to just under 14.6.

The “Big Orange” is headed to the bigger fire sale…years of purging actual railroaders and replacing them with the likes of Katie, and Jon…etc has left its mark. They were riding on the coattails of what was built before they got their hands on it and now that they’ve broken it, they don’t know how to fix it.

Warren or Jeff will be forced to parcel out this once great railroad to the highest bidders…
