This investment follows the company’s 2024 expenditure of approximately $2.52 billion, which included $1.22 billion specifically for maintaining track infrastructure. Such consistent investment underscores CNI’s commitment to safety and long-term operational reliability.

Canadian National Railway Company Focuses on Western Canada Expansion

A significant portion of the 2025 plan targets capacity expansion in Western Canada. CNI aims to install over 225 miles of new rail and complete eight major infrastructure projects by year-end. These developments are intended to alleviate congestion, improve throughput, and support the region’s critical role in Canadian exports.

Additionally, CNI will invest more than $360 million to upgrade and expand its rolling stock, enhancing safety, efficiency, and environmental sustainability across its North American network.

By maintaining a strategic approach to capital spending, Canadian National Railway Company reinforces its competitive edge while supporting broader economic and environmental goals.

Investments in urban bottlenecks like Greater Chicago and Vancouver, as well as upgrades in major yards such as MacMillan in Ontario, demonstrate CNI’s role in building a resilient, future-ready supply chain.

These initiatives ensure the company continues to deliver dependable service to customers and build capacity to meet growing demands.
