Rail Performance

Measuring What Matters
As a founding member of the Ag Transport Coalition (ATC), a consortium of agriculture groups, Pulse Canada is focused on measuring the service performance of Canada’s rail carriers and ensuring the timely execution of pulse sales programs to domestic and international customers.
Through the ATC Railway Performance Measurement Program (RPM), railway performance is measured across a range of key indicators that includes railcar demand, railway car supply, timeliness of railway car supply, corridor performance, railway dwell times at origin and railway dwell times at destination. Updated weekly, the information below provides unbiased, real time data into the logistical challenges being faced by the agriculture industry.
