Canadian Nat'l to increase pay after talks fizzle
NEW YORK — Canadian National Railway Co. said Tuesday it will raise wages for its engineers and alter a work rule after contract talks fizzled last week.
The Montreal-based railroad said it gave Teamsters Canada Rail Conference notice of its plan to increase wage rates by 1.5 percent and apply a change to the mileage caps for the company's union locomotive engineers. The union represents about 1,700 locomotive engineers.
