CN employees are railroaders. We say that because every employee, from Prince Rupert to New Orleans, from Vancouver to Duluth, from Quebec City to Memphis, from Chicago to Halifax, has the power to improve CN as a railroad. It's that simple.

We work hard. We're good at what we do. And we continue to improve our skills, always looking for new ways to leverage our unique business model. Becoming better railroaders, plain and simple, every day; that's the key to delivering value, to CN customers and investors alike.
