EMP Service Change to/from Canada

Announcement Number: IM2022-124
Categories: Domestic Miscellaneous
Posted Date: September 9, 2022

Dear Intermodal Customer,

Effective October 8, 2022, the Canadian Pacific Railroad (CP) will no longer be party to the EMP program. As such, customers will not be able to waybill EMPs to or from the CP after this date. UP will however be expanding our relationship with the Canadian National (CN) and making them our exclusive Canadian EMP partner. UP and CN will provide service to and from all points in Canada on the CN network. We are collaborating with the CN on service, pricing and equipment allocation to provide a seamless transition to meet your intermodal needs to and from Canada.

All UP (and Mexico) originating rate documents with CP rates will be expired. Documents will be updated with routing and rates, including updated CN options by October 8, 2022.

For all Canadian originated traffic destined to the UP (and Mexico), please reach out to your CN representative for updated routing and rates.

If you have any questions, please contact your Union Pacific representative.
