Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited (NYSE:CP) is one of the best railroad stocks to buy according to analysts. On March 12, Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited (NYSE:CP) said 14 new Site Ready rail-served industrial development locations had received certification. The sites are spread across North America.
This certification is part of the company’s broader Room to Grow commercial strategy to attract manufacturers, logistics operators, and supply chain partners to its network. Six states in the US, three Canadian provinces, and two Mexican states host these development sites. They collectively unlock more than 6,600 acres of immediately developable land, noted Canadian Pacific Kansas City, or CPKC. This means that businesses can break ground without waiting through the lengthy pre-permitting and rail connection approval process that typically adds months to industrial project timelines.
This announcement more than doubles CPKC’s existing footprint in the Room to Grow program. The railway had just eight Site Ready locations before this batch, and now counts 22 certified sites across its tri-national network. Each certified location was developed in partnership with Burns & McDonnell, a global engineering and construction firm. CPKC stated that each site comes pre-approved for rail service connection with proximity to major markets, ports, and distribution hubs.
John Brooks, CPKC’s Executive Vice-President and Chief Marketing Officer, framed the expansion as a direct customer support tool. He stated: “Each certified location is designed to streamline development, accelerate timelines and create new value for both business and communities through unparalleled rail connectivity.”
Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited (NYSE:CP) is a North American freight rail company. It operates a rail network of approximately 20,000 miles that spans Canada, the United States, and Mexico.
