For more than five years, CN has used Machine Vision/AI Wayside Detection technology along its network in Canada and the United States. CN has been using this solution to complement current manual inspections, helping maintain its fleet with more efficiency, leading to a safer and more reliable railway. &nbsp;
Duos is the inventor of the Railcar Inspection Portal and holder of ten active U.S. Patents of this cutting-edge solution making continual technical advances since 2010 with 13 portals deployed in Canada, Mexico, and the United States supporting four Class 1s and Amtrak.
Late last year, Duos and Amtrak began a pilot program to test the subscription concept for images. Amtrak's long-distance passenger trains are scanned, and the machine vision images are sent in real time to Amtrak mechanical inspectors who have used the data with excellent results during the testing period.
Beginning this month, Duos will offer shippers and car owners that transit the CN network the opportunity to subscribe to this cutting-edge machine vision safety data. This safety information can be used in various ways to include predictive maintenance, trend analytics, and overall fleet health and maintenance.&nbsp;&nbsp; The intent is to have better maintained railcars that make the network safer and more productive for everyone.

BofA Securities analyst Ken Hoexter downgraded Canadian National Railway Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CNI#NYSE">CNI</a>) to Neutral from Buy, lowering the price forecast from<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CNI/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> $129 to $122 amid &#8220;rising earnings pressure.&#8221;</a>
According to the analyst, the company&#8217;s third-quarter volumes have been affected by ongoing network performance challenges following the labor lockout of Conductor/Engineer staff in August.
The analyst estimates 2024 EPS growth of -0.3%, down from a previous forecast of +2.0%, which is below Canadian National&#8217;s revised low single-digit guidance, reduced from mid-single digits last month.
Hoexter highlights that Canadian National has been grappling with months of labor uncertainty, a four-day shutdown of its Canadian network, and wildfires in Alberta.
The company&#8217;s September volumes were below expectations, showing only a slight year-over-year increase. This was influenced by labor uncertainty, a slower-than-anticipated ramp in Canadian grain, and various service challenges.

Additionally, Metals &amp; Minerals volumes declined by 9% year-over-year, falling short of the analyst&#8217;s previous estimate of -5.5% (now revised to -9%), primarily due to reduced steel demand from sluggish construction activity.
The analyst has revised the third quarter 2024 operating ratio estimate to 63.1%, up from 61.4%, reflecting a 90 basis points deterioration from the second to the third quarter, which is worse than the 80 basis points average improvement seen over the past five years during the same period.
Following a rise in labor costs and congestion in the second quarter, the company has furloughed employees and halted hiring in certain regions as it seeks to address cost issues in the Vancouver corridor, according to the analyst.
Price Action: CNI shares are trading lower by 0.49% to $113.68 at last check Friday.
