While CN says it was the first railroad to adopt PSR under Hunter Harrison, the company says there is a danger of going too far. “We understood from the beginning that PSR was only the first step towards realizing the full potential of rail.

They added a quote from Hunter’s book – “The ultimate goal of all our jobs is to create value for our customers and our shareholders by providing good service to our customers.”
