About us

The Toronto Terminals Railway Company Limited (TTR) was incorporated by the Canadian Parliament in 1906 as jointly owned by the Grand Trunk (later to be CN) and CP (now CPKC). As a result, we have more than 100 years of railway experience and knowledge, making us a leader in the industry. Our company continues to evolve with the ever-changing railway industry, and we remain reliable & versatile to meet the needs of our customers.

TTR is jointly owned by Canadian National Railway (CN) and CPKC allowing the company to benefit from the best practices and guidance of the two largest railways in Canada.
