Canadian Pacific and Kansas City Southern (KCS) are set to combine as early as April 14th to create Canadian Pacific Kansas City, the first and only single-line railway connecting the US, Mexico and Canada. The announcement from CP comes after the US Surface Transportation Board approved the merger earlier this week. CP announced today the executive leadership team that will lead CPKC. Keith Creel will become President and CEO of CPKC while Pat Ottensmeyer, KCS President and CEO, has agreed to continue to be an advisor to Mr. Creel through the remainder of 2023 to ensure continuity on key initiatives predominantly involving the combined company and Mexico.
