Union Pacific led the rallies with weekly petroleum carloads up 5%, leveraging strong U.S. domestic refinery demand into the Gulf coast region supported by favorable crack spreads. CSX held steady and Norfolk Southern was flat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Canada&#8217;s two Class I railroads moved sharply lower<\/span>.<\/strong> CPKC&#8217;s weekly petroleum shipments fell 4% and Canadian National&#8217;s dropped 12%\u2014the latter&#8217;s sharpest weekly decline in months. The culprit: <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Western Canadian Select widened its discount to December NYMEX by 65\u00a2\/barrel in a single week to $12.40 per barrel under the benchmark<\/span>.<\/strong> This compression of the WCS-to-Cushing arbitrage window essentially priced out long haul crude by rail to the U.S. Gulf for Canadian heavy grades. When WCS trades at steep discounts to deliverable crude at U.S. hubs, the per-barrel transportation cost\u2014whether by rail or pipeline\u2014becomes the deciding factor (right now pipe is cheaper).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alberta&#8217;s crude production surged to 4.2 million barrels per day following second-quarter maintenance turnarounds, tightening capacity on Enbridge&#8217;s 3.1 million barrel per day Mainline and triggering apportionment for both heavy and light crudes. Enbridge rejected 7% of December heavy crude nominations and 11% of light crude nominations at Kerrobert, Saskatchewan, for December flow. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">With production high and fewer volumes moving offshore via Trans Mountain (which is struggling with weaker Asian demand), shippers are competing intensely for whatever pipeline space remains.<\/span><\/strong> That competition price-checks crude-by-rail out of the equation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interestingly, U.S. Bakken crude-by-rail to Philadelphia and New York remains economically viable at $10.50\/barrel and $10.55\/barrel respectively, reflecting strong demand from U.S. Gulf Coast refineries that are increasing runs as fall turnarounds wind down. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">However, Canadian heavy crude by rail to the U.S. Gulf Coast stands at $15.31\/barrel\u2014a spread differential that now makes even premium U.S. locations uncompetitive for Canadian grades<\/span><\/strong> when pipeline diluent requirements (which rise in winter) and WCS discounts are factored in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Canadian tank car operators and lessors, this is the inverse problem: the North American fleet sits at 250,037 cars (down 0.5% from four weeks prior), yet Canadian crude by rail demand is dwindling. This creates utilization pressure on a per-car basis even as total North American volumes remain strong<strong>. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">It also reinforces the structural story that emerged weeks ago and we have been reporting on: pipeline optimization (Mainline Optimization Phase 1 adding 150,000 b\/d by October 2027, plus TransMountain expansion) will continue to crowd out marginal crude by rail economics<\/span><\/strong>, particularly for Canadian heavy grades in winter months when diluent requirements balloon. The tank car fleet may hold steady in headcount, but utilization rates\u2014and therefore lease prices\u2014face downward pressure as pipeline capacity growth outpaces crude volumes needing rail solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>We are Watching Left Wing Carney Spend Money<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Canadian government announced last Thursday a CAD <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">$6 billion investment over seven years in trade and transportation infrastructure, with significant implications for rail operators moving export cargo<\/span>.<\/strong> Transport Minister Steven MacKinnon and International Trade Minister Maninder Sidhu unveiled two funds: a CAD <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>$5 billion Trade Diversification Corridors Fund to strengthen ports, rail and roads,<\/strong> <\/span>and a $1 billion Arctic Infrastructure Fund for dual-use civilian and defense transportation projects.

Canadian Pacific Kansas City CEO Keith Creel has been promoting the railroad&#8217;s role as a &#8220;land bridge&#8221; between Canada and Mexico that bypasses U.S. tariffs, noting that &#8220;trade between the nations has been modest&#8221; but that &#8220;Canada and Mexico see each other in a way they&#8217;ve never seen each other before.&#8221; CPKC&#8217;s 32,000-kilometre network across all three countries was specifically designed to benefit from North American integration, though Trump&#8217;s tariff threats have accelerated interest in direct Canada-Mexico routing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Trade Diversification Corridors Fund will be delivered by Transport Canada in partnership with the <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Canada Infrastructure Bank, which saw its statutory appropriation limit raised from $35 billion to $45 billion in Budget 2025<\/span><\/strong>. Minister MacKinnon stated the investments will &#8220;create skilled, well-paid jobs, strengthen regional economies, and help Canadian businesses get their goods to new markets.&#8221; <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">For railcar operators, the infrastructure spending signals increased government support for export-oriented rail capacity, particularly for critical minerals, clean technologies, agri-food and manufactured goods moving to non-U.S. destinations.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The $1 billion Arctic Infrastructure Fund will support airports, seaports, all-season roads and potentially rail connections that strengthen Canadian sovereignty while opening new northern trade gateways. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The combination of infrastructure investment and trade diversification strategy creates tailwinds for Class I railroads and short lines serving export corridors, though the benefits are years away given the seven-year funding timeline.<\/span><\/strong> The USMCA renegotiation and potential U.S. tariff escalation are creating urgency around Canada-Mexico trade corridors that CPKC is positioned to exploit. The $6 billion commitment signals government backing for export infrastructure, which is positive for rail, but the seven-year horizon means benefits don&#8217;t materialize until 2032.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>We are Watching Trump and Coal<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The Trump Administration&#8217;s effort to prop up coal demand collided last week with the industry&#8217;s inability to respond to even existing requirements<\/span><\/strong>, creating policy uncertainty for coal car operators. Energy Secretary Chris Wright issued his third consecutive 90-day emergency order on November 18 to keep Michigan&#8217;s J.H. Campbell coal-fired power plant running, forcing the facility to remain open through mid-February despite its planned May 2025 closure. The 60-year-old plant was scheduled for early decommissioning by owner Consumers Energy, which had projected the closure would save regional customers $600 million through 2040 by eliminating an expensive, inefficient facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The emergency orders have cost electricity ratepayers in 11 Midwestern states over $80 million through September\u2014more than $600,000 per day\u2014with Consumers Energy seeking to recover mounting costs from customers. Michigan Attorney General and environmental groups are suing to overturn the orders, arguing no emergency exists and that the administration is illegally forcing consumers to bail out uneconomic coal plants. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Wright has stated bluntly that &#8220;this administration&#8217;s policy is going to be to stop the closure of coal plants,&#8221; and has threatened to use emergency powers to save additional facilities.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Meanwhile, the Senate voted 51-43 last Thursday to reverse the Biden administration&#8217;s ban on new coal leasing in Wyoming&#8217;s Powder River Basin, which supplies roughly 40% of U.S. coal.<\/span> <\/strong>The bill, H.J. Res. 130, heads to President Trump for signature and would restore access to an estimated 48 billion short tons of federal coal reserves. However, the legislation arrives amid severe market headwinds: Powder River Basin production has fallen from 400 million tons to 200 million tons over the past decade, and recent federal coal auctions have drawn either no bids or bids too low for the government to accept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The contradiction is stark<strong>. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">October 2025 recorded the lowest coal carloads for any October since Association of American Railroads records began in 1988, according to AAR data.<\/span> <\/strong>U.S. coal producers are struggling to meet even current demand due to labor shortages, aging equipment and geological challenges, with <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>coal mining employment falling to 40,300 in August\u2014the lowest level in over three years<\/strong>.<\/span> Alliance Resource Partners further reduced its 2025 sales outlook in October to 32.5-33.3 million short tons, down 500,000 tons from July guidance, due primarily to mining setbacks and elevated production costs at Appalachian operations including the Mettiki mine in West Virginia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alliance CEO Joe Craft has argued that data center electricity demand will drive 4-6% annual growth in PJM, reducing gas-to-coal competition. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Yet even if that thesis proves correct, the industry lacks the workforce, equipment and capital to respond\u2014a structural problem that Senate votes and emergency orders cannot solve.<\/span> <\/strong>&nbsp;Forced plant operations provide temporary utilization support, but the underlying trajectory remains negative: structural decline in production, record-low carloads, and producers already sold out for the rest of 2025 with no ability to ramp output. The emergency orders are legally questionable bailouts unlikely to survive sustained court challenges, while restored Powder River Basin leasing faces a market with no bidders for federal coal at acceptable prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>We are Watching CP and CN<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Canadian National and Canadian Pacific Kansas City are actively positioning themselves to capture regulatory concessions from the proposed Union Pacific-Norfolk Southern merger ahead of the STB application expected in early December<\/span><\/strong>. Speaking at the Scotiabank investor conference on November 18, CN CEO Tracy Robinson told analysts that approval will require &#8220;pretty serious concessions,&#8221; signaling that Canadian Class I railroads see strategic opportunities in whatever remedies the Surface Transportation Board imposes. The merger&#8217;s regulatory calculus has tightened considerably last week, as <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">the STB is now operating under 2001 rules that require merging Class I railroads to affirmatively demonstrate that their combination enhances competition, not merely preserves it &#8211; a higher bar than previous merger reviews.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Robinson said concessions could include &#8220;opportunities for us around being able to drive deeper into the U.S. market,&#8221; though she declined to specify before UP files its application. CPKC&#8217;s CFO Nadeem Velani similarly flagged that &#8220;there are going to be conditions placed if this deal goes through, there&#8217;s no doubt, whether it&#8217;s trackage rights or interchange opportunities or divestitures.&#8221;<strong> <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">More specifically, Velani signaled that CPKC would have capital available to acquire divested segments &#8211; a clear message to the STB that even forced divestitures could be absorbed by competing carriers.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The regulatory environment has darkened further for UP-NS. On November 20, FERC voted unanimously to propose new pipeline tariff rules, restricting the ability of major crude pipelines to raise rates starting July 2026<\/span>.<\/strong> FERC&#8217;s new index formula will use the annual average PPI-FG minus 1.42% (versus the old formula of PPI-FG minus 0.21%), effectively capping pipeline rate increases at roughly 2% annually versus the 14% increases that formulas yielded in 2023. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">While this primarily affects crude pipelines, the broader regulatory environment signals that 2026 will bring tighter controls on transportation pricing across modes &#8211; rail included.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A bipartisan coalition of 54 Republican state lawmakers warned the STB on November 17th that the UP-NS merger could <strong>&#8220;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">negatively affect America&#8217;s ability to compete with China<\/span>&#8220;<\/strong> and could give the combined railroad &#8220;dominant market share in critical commodity sectors&#8221; including chemicals, metals, agricultural products, and scrap metal. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The coalition directly contradicts Trump&#8217;s public support for the deal, demonstrating genuine policy discord even within his party.<\/span><\/strong> Nine Republican state attorneys general also separately filed warnings about market concentration and reduced shippers&#8217; competitive options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>We are Watching the BNSF and the CSX<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>BNSF and CSX launched expanded intermodal service on November 17th linking Los Angeles with Ohio Valley and Northeast destinations<\/strong>,<\/span> cutting transit times by 22 to 52 hours depending on destination. The new five-day-per-week schedules from BNSF&#8217;s Hobart terminal reach CSX destinations including Northwest Ohio (89 hours), Chambersburg, Pennsylvania (123 hours, improved by 28 hours), Columbus, Louisville, Philadelphia, South Kearny, Syracuse and Springfield. The partnership, which began in August with Southwest-Southeast lanes, has already converted over-the-highway loads to intermodal and captured business previously handled by Norfolk Southern, according to BNSF customer advisories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The expansion represents a direct competitive response to the proposed Union Pacific-Norfolk Southern merger announced in July.<\/span><\/strong> Norfolk Southern executives acknowledged on their October earnings call that they expected to lose market share as rival railroads create new services in reaction to the merger proposal. Intermodal analyst Larry Gross noted the merger has already reversed a 20-year trend of declining interline intermodal moves, as railroads historically avoided pre-blocking trains for interchange due to cost concerns without easily traced revenue offsets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new schedules offer customers &#8220;immediate value by increasing speed, flexibility and optionality while delivering integrated service for freight moving across the U.S.,&#8221; according to BNSF. Industry observers expect further route expansions as BNSF and CSX leverage their combined network to compete for transcontinental business against the proposed UP-NS system. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">This is exactly the type of network optimization the Class I industry has historically avoided due to interchange costs, but the merger threat has forced competitors to collaborate.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><em>&nbsp;We are Watching the Brotherhood<\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen reached a tentative five-year national agreement with freight railroads represented by the National Carriers&#8217; Conference Committee on November 2, covering 11,000 BLET members at BNSF, Norfolk Southern, Canadian National, and some smaller railroads. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The agreement follows the industry-wide pattern established by other unions: 18.8% compounded wage increases over five years, a one-time $500 payment, and health care improvements with no increase in employee contributions (premiums remain at $308\/month versus national average of $500+).<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The NCCC stated that upon ratification\u2014results expected in December\u2014nearly 95% of union-represented freight rail employees at railroads participating in national handling will be covered by collective bargaining agreements following the industry pattern. BLET President Mark Wallace said the union &#8220;attempted to move beyond the pattern&#8221; but <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">railroads were unwilling without concessions to work rules and other protections<\/span>. <\/strong>CPKC separately announced tentative five-year agreements with BLET covering approximately 300 locomotive engineers on its Soo Line property in Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, North Dakota and Wisconsin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2025 bargaining round has been characterized by &#8220;historic collaboration&#8221; between freight rail carriers and unions, with the NCCC chairman calling it &#8220;one of the most productive in modern freight rail history.&#8221; The settlements provide wage certainty and avoid the potential for service disruptions that characterized the contentious 2022 negotiations. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">With BLET ratification expected by year-end, railroads can move into 2026 with stable labor costs and headcount certainty\u2014important for capital planning and operational forecasting.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>We are Watching Class 1 Head Count<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Class I railroads employed 117,540 workers in the United States in October 2025, a -0.30% decrease from September 2025&#8217;s count of 117,888 and a -2.29% year-over-year decrease from October 2024&#8217;s total of 120,290,<\/span> <\/strong>according to Surface Transportation Board data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"707\" height=\"376\" src=\"https:\/\/pflpetroleum.com\/reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-49.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19032\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pflpetroleum.com\/reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-49.png 707w, https:\/\/pflpetroleum.com\/reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-49-300x160.png 300w, https:\/\/pflpetroleum.com\/reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-49-600x318.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 707px) 100vw, 707px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"706\" height=\"376\" src=\"https:\/\/pflpetroleum.com\/reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-46.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19015\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pflpetroleum.com\/reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-46.png 706w, https:\/\/pflpetroleum.com\/reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-46-300x160.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 706px) 100vw, 706px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"707\" height=\"379\" src=\"https:\/\/pflpetroleum.com\/reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-47.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19016\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pflpetroleum.com\/reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-47.png 707w, https:\/\/pflpetroleum.com\/reports\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-47-300x161.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 707px) 100vw, 707px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">None of the six employment categories posted month-over-month increases between September and October.
