CN announced it would acquire 350 boxcars to meet growing demand among industrial customers across its North American network.
为满足北美不断增加的客户需求,加拿大国家铁路将收购350辆货运车厢。
“These additional boxcars, combined with our new locomotives, hundreds of new train crew members, and track expansion investments, will help give us the capacity and network resiliency we need for pulp, paper and metals customers,” said Doug MacDonald, vice president of bulk at CN, headquartered in Montreal.
“这些新增车厢配上新的车头以及训练有素的新员工,加上铁轨扩建投资,让我们为北美地区的客户提供更好的服务,满足客户需求,构建弹性运输网络。”加拿大国家铁路副总裁道格·麦克唐纳德说道。加拿大国家铁路公司总部位于魁北克省的蒙特利尔。
The leased 50-foot, high-capacity plate F cars, equipped with 12-foot plug doors, are expected to be delivered beginning in late summer with all the cars in service by the end of 2018.
F型车厢长15.24米,容量大,配有约3米多的塞拉门。车厢预计今年夏末可交付使用。所有车厢在今年年底前将投入运营。
