Dear Mr. Ritchie:

	We have reviewed your supplemental response letter to us
dated
July 29, 2005 in response to our letter of comment dated July 14,
2005 and have the following comments.   Where indicated, we think
you
should revise your documents in response to these comments in
future
filings with us.  Please confirm that such comments will be
complied
with.  If you disagree, we will consider your explanation as to
why
our comments are inapplicable or a revision is unnecessary.
Please
be as detailed as necessary in your explanation.  In some of our
comments, we may ask you to provide us with supplemental
information
so we may better understand your disclosure.  After reviewing the
information, we may or may not raise additional comments.

	Pursuant to Rule 101(a)(3) of Regulation S-T, your response
should be submitted in electronic form, under the label "corresp,"
within five (5) business days of the date of this letter.

FORM 40-F (Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2004)

2004 Annual Information Form

Network and Right of Way, page 14

1. We have reviewed your response to prior comment 1 of your
letter
to us dated July 29, 2005.  We note that your reproduction of our
initial comment excluded the sentence "Please note that specific
geographic areas can represent reportable segments."  As you have
explained the basis of why the four primary corridors, Western,
Southern, Central and Eastern, do not constitute reportable
business
segments and that aggregation of these corridors is not
applicable,
tell us why the geographic areas as disclosed in Note 23 to the
audited financial statements would not represent reportable
segments,
given that you have presented `operating income (loss)` and `net
income (loss)` by geographic location, notwithstanding your
supplemental response that "a large proportion of the costs
required
to operate CPR`s highly integrated network are fixed in any one
fiscal period" and that "these characteristics require subjective
allocations of most of the costs whenever CPR attempts to analyze
costs and determine profitability of individual transports or
services."  In this regard, it appears that the geographic areas
may
represent activities whereby revenues and expenses are accumulated
by
area, the results are regularly reviewed by management, and where
discrete financial information is available.  To the extent your
geographic areas are considered reportable business segments,
please
expand the narrative disclosures in the audited footnote to
indicate
this and expand the MD&A section to provide a discussion of
operating
results by geographic location as reported in your SFAS No. 131
audited footnote.  Alternatively if the four primary corridors and
the geographic areas do not represent reportable business
segments,
expand the narrative disclosure in the audited footnote to
specifically disclose this fact and that your chief operating
decision maker assesses company performance and allocates
resources
solely based on financial information at the consolidated
financial
level, with no analysis given to lower levels or units of
operations,
or geographic areas, as currently implied in your audited
footnote.
Please advise supplementally, and revise in future filings,
accordingly.
