Rail 101 • Pad Availability • To assist the importer with planning their pick up CN will update its systems with an anticipated “pad availability” by noon the day before scheduled placement • This will enable an importer to arrange/comfirm their pick up with the importer - 9 -
Rail 101 • Intermodal Shipment Status - 10 -
Rail 101 • Points to Note: • Scheduled placement is generally conservative • Designed to ensure availability by listed time • If no appointment is made prior to grounding the import will be moved off-site • To ensure import remains at Brampton do not wait until day of placement to make appointment • Appointment may be made when import dispays ETA • Reconfirm after pad availability is displayed • An alert will be sent to the registered email address if pad availability precludes appointment from being fulfilled • Certain circumstances may prevent an import being available immediately at scheduled pad placement. To prevent a dead run: • Monitor actual pad availability when scheduling tight • Plan pick up for the free day - 11 -
Rail 101 • Considerations: • If CN has not provided a scheduled pad availability by noon the day before, the import will continue to have two free days • Storage clock will begin with the later of scheduled pad availability or actual availability • If an appointment cannot be fulfilled due to rescheduling/late pad placement the import will continue to have two free days - 12 -
Rail 101 • Storage: • Any party that will guarantee storage should be set up to do so on line • At the present time, storage may only be guaranteed once the container grounds - 13 -
