CN Weather Advisory: Hurricane Ivan

The following advisory is from the Director of the CN Customer Support Centre.

Ivan remains on a northbound course and has been downgraded to a tropical depression. Although CN's operations in the U.S. Gulf Coast area have recovered, several of our interchange partners in the area are still experiencing congestion due to storm damage, and interchange operations are likely to be delayed. The remainder of CN's local and main line operations along the Gulf Coast are very close to normal operating capacity, and customers should expect only minor delays during the return to normal service levels.

Please don't hesitate to contact your Customer Support Representative or to use your regular channels to obtain more detailed information on specific shipments.
