The strike is expected to halt shipments of grain, fertilizer, coal, cars and other goods that Canadian Pacific moves along nearly 14,900 miles (24,000 kilometers) of track in Canada and the U.S

So does Chevy make other arrangements to get these vehicles to the dealerships or are we going to have to just wait this out??

i say we all need to call customer service and put pressure on them to find another way to ship our cars into the us....Hell the 13's could be out before some of us get our 12's

They can always truck them over to the US to ship them by rail! We can only hope!

I don't believe this will affect the shipment of our cars, they ship on CSX and the CP rail is a east to west northern rail system.

Now for my conspiracy theory. Will the strike affect getting raw materials and parts from suppliers to the plant for producing the cars. Perhaps this is why im still at 3000?

Cp Rail comes across the border @ Detroit...we get them DET-CHI on our line here.
I rememeber when union mill here in town went on strike.. our non-union managers hasd to switch the boxcars there. I forgot there was talk of CP Rail strike... The CN rail also goes thru Canada, into the states here @ Port Huron, MI I wonder if they honor the CP strike, we arent on strike down here in the states, seems weird to me. |

i just got off the phone with GM customer services and it took them all day to get the info, but they told me that my car was loaded today at 2 pm and will be headed to Colorado 2marow. I asked about the rail strike and they said at this point it was not an issue to them so is it coming or not???? the hope continues
