Peace talks held in Islamabad between Vice President JD Vance and Iranian negotiators collapsed Sunday<\/span><\/strong> after more than 21 hours at the table. The sticking points were non-negotiable on both sides: Washington demanded Iran give up uranium enrichment and reopen the strait without tolls; Tehran demanded permanent control of the Strait of Hormuz, the lifting of all sanctions, and frozen asset releases. Vance left Pakistan saying the U.S. had put its best and final offer on the table. The American delegation departed without leaving anyone behind to continue talks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Within hours of the talks collapsing, President Trump announced on Truth Social that <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">the U.S. Navy would begin blockading the strait effective immediately<\/span>,<\/strong> ordering the interdiction of any vessel that had paid Iran a toll for passage and threatening to destroy Iranian mines in the waterway. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The U.S. Navy had already sent two guided-missile destroyers through the strait over the weekend for mine-clearing operations, the first American warships to transit since the war began six weeks ago<\/span>.<\/strong> Iran&#8217;s IRGC responded that any military vessel approaching the strait would be treated as a ceasefire violation. The UK announced it is assembling a coalition with France to contribute minesweepers. One complicating wrinkle: <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Iran has reportedly lost track of some of the mines it planted<\/span>,<\/strong> meaning even Iran cannot fully reopen the strait quickly regardless of any diplomatic agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Analysts at Columbia&#8217;s Center on Global Energy Policy put the current supply shortfall at roughly 7 million barrels of crude and 4 million barrels of product per day not clearing the strait<\/span>.<\/strong> A U.S. blockade adds Iranian export barrels on top of that. Prices that briefly pulled back on ceasefire hopes are heading higher again. For operators with existing crude and LPG rail capacity already in place in North American corridors, the case for keeping that infrastructure active through this period remains strong. No one is building new crude by rail capacity to chase this spike. The commitment required is five years minimum on both the equipment and the rail contracts, and the memories of the last CBR run are fresh. What matters is whether the cars and contracts already in place are working.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>We Are Watching Crude Oil in Canada<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Multiple Canadian crude grades hit all-time premium records last week as U.S. West Coast refiners scrambled to replace Middle Eastern medium sour supply they can no longer reliably source. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Medium sweet Syncrude at Edmonton surged to $19.85-$20\/bl over May CMA Nymex, a new record<\/span>.<\/strong> Canadian light sweet Mixed Sweet at Edmonton reached $12-$12.65\/bl over the benchmark, also a record. Light Sour Blend at Cromer, Manitoba, hit $7-$9.25\/bl, topping its previous record set just nine days earlier on April 1. Canadian condensate at Fort Saskatchewan traded around $10.80\/bl premium. The moves span every grade on the slate and are breaking records set just days earlier. The disruption in the Persian Gulf is repricing Canadian crude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>West Coast refiners built their crude slates around Middle Eastern medium sour grades that are now largely inaccessible. Competing alternatives like Guyanese and Brazilian medium grades have become expensive because European and Asian buyers are bidding them up simultaneously. That leaves Canadian barrels, and Trans Mountain is running close to capacity. The U.S. Gulf Coast sweet 3-2-1 crack spread averaged $35\/bl in the first week of April, up from $20\/bl a year earlier, which means refiners can absorb elevated feedstock costs and still print acceptable margins. Canadian heavy crude WCS at Hardisty is a different story, closing at $79.61\/bl last for may delivery. The light grade premium story and the heavy grade discount story are running simultaneously, and they tell you a lot about what refiners actually need right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For CBR operators, Trans Mountain running near capacity on the light grade story is the key signal. Pipeline space fills first; rail handles the overflow and the spot volumes. The unit train rate from Alberta to the U.S. Gulf Coast was $15.40\/bl last week, and at current WCS prices and crack spreads, economics for moving incremental barrels by rail are closing. The Bakken unit train to Philadelphia is roughly at $9.75\/bl. PFL is tracking crude movement economics across all corridors as the Hormuz situation evolves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>We continue to watch Fertilizer<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Strait of Hormuz closure landed at the worst possible moment for the fertilizer market. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The Middle East accounts for roughly a third of all seaborne fertilizer trade and close to half of global urea exports<\/span>.<\/strong> With traffic through the strait collapsed, prices for nitrogen fertilizers have moved sharply: urea is up approximately 50% since the war began in late February, anhydrous ammonia up around 20%. Saudi Arabia, the third-largest exporter of DAP and MAP phosphate fertilizers, remains effectively stranded behind the closure, along with ammonia and sulfur supplies from Qatar and Iran. This is hitting the market at spring planting season in the Northern Hemisphere, the worst possible timing for farmers already working with compressed margins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Anhydrous ammonia moves almost exclusively by rail or pipeline in North America<\/span>,<\/strong> with pressurized tank cars the primary mode for getting NH3 from production and import terminals to agricultural distribution points. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Spring is already peak season for AA cars<\/span>;<\/strong> a 20% price spike on top of tight supply means every available car is working. North American producers, particularly Nutrien and CF Industries, are in strong shape with domestic supply largely insulated from the Hormuz disruption. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Potash flowing south from Saskatchewan still represents 90% of U.S. imports and is largely unaffected by the conflict. But dry fertilizer movements in covered hoppers and pressurized cars for ammonia and LPG-derived feedstocks are all seeing elevated demand at the same time.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Farmers caught in the middle are making hard calls. Some are reportedly shifting acreage from corn to soybeans to reduce nitrogen application requirements. If that trend holds, it has downstream implications for ethanol demand and corn carloads later in the season. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>The full supply chain consequence of the Hormuz closure will not be visible in planting data for months yet, but rail car demand for fertilizer inputs is running hot right now<\/strong>.<\/span> Stay tuned to PFL for further details, we are watching this one closely.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>We Are Watching Class 1 Performance<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The BN seems to be not performing well.&nbsp; As it relates to crude, BNSF dwell time increased 116% versus the prior four-week period, rising from 9.3 hours to 20.1 hours. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Loaded crude cars not moved in more than 48 hours jumped 313%, from an average of 5.4 cars to 22.3.<\/span><\/strong> Trains held short more than doubled. Speed slipped 4.6%. For ethanol, loaded cars not moving more than 48 hours rose 85.7%, from 121.4 to 225.5 cars on average. These are not subtle shifts. This is a network that absorbed a meaningful service degradation across both commodity types over a single four-week window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Context matters here. BNSF is also investing heavily, with a $3.6 billion 2026 capital plan covering over 400 miles of rail replacement and 2.5 million tie replacements across the network. Track work and maintenance activity during this period is the most likely driver of the congestion spike rather than a structural collapse in operating practice. CPKC, by contrast, improved across several crude metrics in the same period, and CSX showed crude dwell and cars-not-moving improving. Union Pacific&#8217;s loaded crude cars not moved more than 48 hours rose 88.5%, so BNSF is not alone, but the scale of the BNSF numbers stands out. Total tank cars on line across all six Class I carriers rose slightly to 254,530 from 252,173 four weeks prior, a 0.9% increase, which suggests fleet utilization remains firm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For shippers moving crude or ethanol on BNSF, particularly unit trains where dwell and car velocity directly affect return cycles, this is a period that warrants close attention. Cars sitting at terminals are not turning, and slower turns mean you effectively need more cars in your fleet to maintain the same throughput. PFL is tracking network performance and can help customers assess whether their current fleet size is adequate, given current velocity data.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>We Are Watching the Railway Safety Act<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Last week the NTSB released its preliminary report on the March 18 Union Pacific derailment near Richmond, Texas. The train, running westbound from Houston to Eagle Pass and measuring over 10,000 feet long, derailed 24 cars on the Glidden Subdivision. Of those, 18 were tank cars carrying hazardous materials. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Seven tank cars breached, collectively releasing approximately 120,000 gallons of ethanol.<\/span><\/strong> Two additional tank cars of liquified petroleum gas were among the derailed equipment, but did not breach. No injuries were reported, and UP assessed damages at approximately $3.6 million. The preliminary report notes clear weather and no precipitation at the time of the incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The timing of the report is notable. The bipartisan <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Railway Safety Act of 2026<\/span> <\/strong>was introduced in the U.S. Senate last month and is working through the legislative process. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The bill includes strengthened tank car standards, enhanced requirements for high-hazard trains<\/span><\/strong>, a mandatory minimum of two FRA-certified crew members on every freight train, new wayside defect detection standards, and expanded emergency response planning requirements for hazmat movements. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">It also takes another run at the DOT-111 and CPC-1232 phase-out question<\/span>,<\/strong> which has been contested for years. CPC-1232 lease rates are currently $800 per car per month for 1-5 year term, and any accelerated phase-out mandate would reshape the secondary market for those cars materially.&nbsp; <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Quite a few shippers have already scrapped or retrofitted many of these cars&nbsp; to 117R\u2019s, but there are still quite a few out there.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Agricultural shippers have already raised concerns with Congress about provisions they say could limit network flexibility, including train length restrictions and mandatory manual inspection requirements that could slow the adoption of automated inspection technology. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">That tension, between safety advocates pushing for faster regulatory action and shippers worried about operational constraints, will define the legislative debate<\/span>.<\/strong> The Richmond derailment, while contained and without injuries, gives advocates on both sides\u2019 fresh material. PFL is monitoring the Railway Safety Act&#8217;s progress and its potential implications for tank car fleet composition and lease economics.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>We Are Watching Left Wing Canadian Prime Minister Carney<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The Carney government and Alberta missed the April 1 MOU deadline on not one item, but two<\/span>.<\/strong> The November memorandum of understanding between Ottawa and Premier Danielle Smith set April 1 as the target for finalizing carbon pricing equivalency and a trilateral agreement with the Oilsands Alliance on the Pathways carbon capture project. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Neither is done. Carney told reporters he felt good about the progress<\/span><\/strong>. Smith said she hoped to land the carbon pricing deal in the next few days and complete the Pathways agreement before the end of April. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Meanwhile, Syncrude was trading at $20\/bl over benchmark, the crack spread on the U.S. Gulf Coast averaged $35\/bl, and the world was offering Canada a window to move more of its oil to markets that desperately want it.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Pathways project is the centrepiece of the pipeline deal: a carbon capture network linking over 20 oilsands facilities to underground storage near Cold Lake. Carney has called it a necessary condition for approving a new bitumen pipeline. But without the carbon pricing agreement finalized, the Oilsands Alliance will not sign the Pathways MOU, and without Pathways, the pipeline file does not advance. Smith has set a July 1 internal deadline to submit the new pipeline proposal to the federal Major Projects Office, though she has said it could come earlier. British Columbia has not been formally engaged on a pipeline route through its territory, and B.C. Premier David Eby has made his position clear on the matter. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">What Carney has managed to produce is a political framework with deadlines that keep slipping and dependencies that stack on top of each other.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">A new line to B.C. tidewater is years away under the best-case scenario, and the Hormuz disruption has just demonstrated that price spikes happen faster than infrastructure gets built<\/span>.<\/strong> Rail is not a consolation prize for producers who cannot get pipeline space. It is the flexible egress that keeps Alberta crude moving when the market moves faster than Ottawa can negotiate. Looks to us it: is the same old, same old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Some one needs to inform the Canadian Prime Minister that the world is not getting rid of crude oil anytime soon \u2013 he has the responsibility to provide this resource to the free world. Every barrel of crude oil tells a story.

The proposed 36-inch line would span approximately 647 miles, starting in Phillips County, Montana, crossing eastern Montana, and terminating at the Guernsey hub in Wyoming. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Initial capacity is designed at 550,000 barrels per day, expandable to 1.13 million barrels per day with additional pump stations.<\/span><\/strong> Much of the route runs parallel to existing pipeline corridors, and the project may integrate assets from the defunct Keystone XL. The application also shows potential tie-ins to the Bakken shale oil field in North Dakota, giving regional producers a new competitive egress option south to one of the most connected crude hubs in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The project cost has been pegged at $4.5 million per mile for the 435 miles planned in Montana, totaling approximately $1.96 billion for that segment alone<\/span>.<\/strong> Applying the same rate across the full 647-mile length puts total project cost closer to $2.9 billion. On the Canadian side, South Bow&#8217;s proposed Prairie Connector project would move crude from Hardisty, Alberta, to the U.S. border using partially built Keystone XL assets. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">South Bow closed an open season for 450,000 b\/d of binding long-term commitments last week<\/span>.<\/strong> The regulatory clock is now running on Bridger&#8217;s side: the Bureau of Land Management and Montana Department of Environmental Quality are conducting public scoping through May 1, with in-person meetings held last week in Glasgow and Miles City. A final environmental decision is targeted for May 2027, with construction to follow if approved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That timeline is the key takeaway for rail shippers. A final federal decision in May 2027 means construction starting no earlier than mid-to-late 2027 at best, and construction is estimated at 12-18 months. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The line is not moving a barrel before late 2028 or early 2029 under an optimistic scenario<\/span>.<\/strong> Crude-by-rail out of Montana and the Bakken remains the only flexible egress option through the entire permitting and construction window. The Guernsey hub connection is worth watching longer term. Strong downstream pipeline access to Cushing and beyond means a line of this capacity would meaningfully reshape crude flow patterns across the northern Rockies and Midwest when it eventually comes online. That day is years away. Call PFL at 239-390-2885 if you are moving crude by rail in the Montana or Bakken corridor and want to talk through fleet positioning as this project develops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>We Are Watching New Jersey&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Last week the New Jersey Department of Transportation awarded 11 grants totaling $26.3 million through its Rail Freight Assistance Program for fiscal year 2026. The program covers up to 90% of eligible project costs, with recipients required to maintain freight service on improved lines for at least 10 years after completion. Projects are selected competitively, with emphasis on port commerce connectivity, closing gaps in freight rail access to New Jersey&#8217;s port facilities, and upgrading track to a 286,000-pound load-carrying capacity. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">New Jersey has invested nearly $250 million in its freight rail network through this program over the past eight years<\/span>.<\/strong> Last week&#8217;s round continues that commitment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 286,000-pound load standard matters more than the headline number. Short line track that cannot handle that load is off-limits for a large portion of today&#8217;s tank car and covered hopper fleet. Every mile upgraded to that standard opens new routing options and makes rail a viable competitor to truck for shippers who currently have no practical alternative. New Jersey sits at the center of one of the busiest freight corridors in North America. The Port of Newark and Port Elizabeth handle more container volume than any other East Coast port complex, and the short line network connecting those ports to inland chemical, food, and consumer goods manufacturers is critical infrastructure. When that network deteriorates, shippers lose options. These upgrades add them back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the kind of steady, unglamorous infrastructure work that does not make headlines the way a pipeline announcement does, but it is exactly what keeps short line rail viable as a competitive alternative to trucks for regional shippers. PFL serves shippers across the Northeast corridor and monitors network capacity as these upgrades come online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">&nbsp;<strong><em>We Are Watching Key Economic Indicators<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Purchasing Managers Index (PMI)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Institute for Supply Management releases two PMI reports \u2013 one covering manufacturing and the other covering services.
