Tracy Robinson, president and CEO of Canadian National Railway, said the investment reflects the company’s vision to build for the future. She noted the goal is to improve service and reliability for customers and communities alike.

Last year, the company allocated nearly $36 million for maintenance in Tennessee. That investment focused on replacing rails and ties, repairing structures, and improving grade crossings throughout the state.

This year’s spending reaffirms Canadian National Railway’s commitment to modernization. It also signals the company’s determination to meet rising freight demands with cutting-edge technology and durable infrastructure.

While investing in Tennessee, CNI also continues aggressive growth across North America. The company invested $20 million in Indiana, $75 million in Mississippi, and $170 million in Illinois. In Canada, recent investments include $58 million in New Brunswick and $22 million in Nova Scotia.

In May alone, the company announced even larger Canadian projects. These include $211 million in Saskatchewan, $346 million in Quebec, $120 million in Manitoba, $372 million in Alberta, and $438 million in Ontario — all amounts converted to USD.

By targeting infrastructure and innovation, the railway strengthens both service quality and supply chain reliability. And by aligning with regional economic goals, the company continues to drive long-term value across its entire North American network.
