Although LoadSmart likes to focus on the trucking industry more so then other transportation outlets, such a large merger could affect the transportation sector as a whole. Canadian Pacific is worth $32.5 billion, while CSX is worth $30 billion, a merger like that would leave us with a transportation company worth over $60 billion. Although Canadian Pacific is pursuing this merger and stating that a merger would help congestion. CSX is a bit ambivalent with their shareholders most likely expecting high premiums for their shares. Mergers in the railroad industry are difficult. LoadSmart will keep you up to date on this.
