Richmond, Québec, enabling the SL&A to provide personalized
service to customers systemwide and on both sides of the
U.S./Canada border. The 35-acre Maine Intermodal Terminal, part of
the CN intermodal network, allows us to offer the only northern New
England double-stack container service, complemented by domestic
trailer service to both local and intermodal customers.
