Interline service from Mexico to Chicago launched
In partnership with Kansas City Southern (KCS), Canadian Pacific Railway (CP) recently launched the first dedicated international intermodal train between Lazaro Cardenas in Mexico and Chicago in the US Midwest. This first train was born out of the need to avoid excessive delays due to the unprecedented and ongoing supply chain challenges affecting North America's West Coast, CP said.
Carrying containers offloaded at Lazaro Cardenas, the train arrived at CP's Bensenville Yard in the Chicago area on 8 March 2022. The total transit time from vessel arrival at Lázaro to train arrival in Chicago was just seven days. CP and KCS cooperated as interline carriers to offer a new intermodal service to meet market demand. (ben)
