Canadian Pacific Kansas City said Monday it set a new June monthly record for transporting Canadian grain and grain products, moving 2.8 million metric tonnes in June 2026.
The new June achievement beat the previous tonnage record set in June 2020. The second quarter also set a record for tonnage and carloads, beating previous highs also set in 2020.
CPKC previously set records for the movement of Canadian grain in the first quarter and has set monthly records in five of the first six months of 2026. Monthly records earlier this year were set in January, February, April and May.
Through Week 48 of the 2025-2026 crop year, CPKC transported more than 28.4 million metric tonnes of Canadian grain and grain products. These are the largest Canadian grain totals since the record-setting 2020-2021 crop year.
In the United States, CPKC also set a monthly tonnage record for grain movements in June, moving 2.5 million metric tonnes and exceeding the previous record set in 2022. A record 7.5 million metric tonnes moved in the second quarter, exceeding the second quarter of 2022.
