Canadian National Railway Company (CN) is a Class I freight railway headquartered in Montréal, Canada. It operates a tri-coastal network of roughly 18,600 route miles (about 30,000 km) spanning Canada and into the United States, linking the Atlantic, Pacific, and Gulf coasts with major industrial hubs. The network includes intermodal terminals, rail yards, and transload locations, and connects with other North American rail carriers.
CN serves the chemical value chain by moving petroleum and chemical products, plastics, fertilizers, and related feedstocks via bulk rail and intermodal services. Its routes connect producers, refineries, and distributors to domestic markets and deep-water ports for export, with access to multiple Class I interchanges to extend market reach across North America.
Also known as CN Rail and Canadian National.
