Citing fears of scheduling snafus, safety problems and inadequate infrastructure, Metra has asked a federal agency to block the proposed merger of two major freight rail companies.
Canadian Pacific told WTTW News the company is reviewing Metra’s filing so it can respond, and is talking directly with Metra about commuter rail concerns.
Metra’s filing also airs complaints about Canadian Pacific’s “longstanding pattern of interference with Metra’s commuter rail service, both during peak and non-peak periods.” While Metra owns the MD-W and MD-N tracks, Canadian Pacific operates them under a long-term agreement. “CP has been a good partner to the passenger service operators that use our lines in the United States and Canada, including in suburban Chicago,” Canadian Pacific’s spokesman responded in its statement. “The Milwaukee District West Line has achieved a 95.2 percent annual on time performance average over the 2016-2020 period, in line with Metra’s system-wide on-time performance average of 95.5 percent over that period, according to Metra OTP reports.
