The strike is expected to halt shipments of grain, fertilizer, coal, cars and other goods that Canadian Pacific moves along nearly 14,900 miles (24,000 kilometers) of track in Canada and the U.S

I know that they wouldn't want to get a rail car of ZL1's sitting side-tracked somewhere...think security - elements - vandalism.

Fire up the 18-wheelers or...I've got my passport in my back pocket.

So does Chevy make other arrangements to get these vehicles to the dealerships or are we going to have to just wait this out??

So there's going to be a LOT of ZL1's @ 4B00 pretty soon I'd imagine.

At this point, they (GM) probably haven't made any decisions. It would be nice if someone "in-the-know" would jump in here, but I doubt that they have answers yet.

As you know, information in this whole process has been at a premium.
