Take stock. The food we eat...the clothes we wear...the cars we drive... the lumber and materials in our homes... That’s why we’re working hard to keep the costs of moving goods as low as possible. There’s a lot at stake for everyone. \f increased transportation costs affect manu- facturers’ ability to remain competitive, that in turn can affect the livelihood of people they employ— and affect their suppliers. Efficient transportation is everyone’s business. Driven by the needs of our customers, we've taken inventory of the things we can and are doing to help productivity and trim costs. For example, we added 90 of the most advanced locomotives available. They not only haul more tonnage, but also monitor their own performance. This reduces the frequency and downtime for repair, and cuts fuel consumption by as much as 22%. That's great news for the environment— and business. We've increased our intermodal fleet with 100 “5-pak” cars that CN designed. These versatile units can carry 1,000 double-stacked containers or 500 highway trailers. This kind of flexibility and capacity is important in cost efficiencies. These are but a few of the things going on at CN—all part of our commitment to give Canada an efficient, world-class transportation system that helps keep the cost of goods down and the economy moving forward. And that’s everyone’s business. Living up to the commitment.
