Grain Handling and Transportation System

The Government of Canada Hopper Car Fleet Annual Report details the use of the Government’s hopper car fleet.

They cover a 12-month period starting January 1 and ending December 31 for each year. The report:

  • Summarizes the monthly operating reports as received from CN and CP;
  • Details changes in the grain fleet – retirements, destroyed cars and additions;
  • Outlines the results of refurbishment and maintenance inspections and revenue audits; and
  • Summarizes information on revenues received from the railways.
