CPR Captures 2006 American Honda's "Rail Origin of the Year" Award
Canadian Pacific Railway has been awarded the "Rail Origin of
the Year" award by American Honda Motor Co.
The award recognizes the railway's excellent performance in four key areas; on-time performance, damage prevention,
equipment supply, and equipment placement and pre-tripping.
"Canadian Pacific Railway was the first North American Class 1 railroad to achieve Honda's Performance Excellence last year. We now
have a new program and criteria for measuring Performance Excellence, and once again we see that CPR has risen to the challenge and
captured the "Rail Origin of the Year" award for 2006," said Dave Haney, AVP Auto Distribution and Logistics for American
Honda. "Congratulations to CPR and their team for once again meeting the challenge of Performance Excellence for Honda."
"This award from American Honda reflects our commitment to a collaborative approach and in developing and implementing service
programs that contribute to our customers' success," said Ray Foot, CPR's Vice President, Merchandise. "The results are a
product of a strong dedication and focus on delivering value through our company's integrated operating plan."
Canadian Pacific Railway has worked with American Honda for more than 20 years and provides transportation for its finished vehicles
from Canada to locations across North America.
Foot added, "we value our relationship with American Honda and we're proud our integrated team continues to find innovative ways
to deliver them a valued rail service."
