CN Engineers End Walk-out

CN Rail, the country's biggest railway, is getting back to normal, five days after its 17-hundred locomotive engineers went on strike.

Teamsters Canada says the engineers will be back at work as fast as they can after both sides reached a tentative agreement.

About a dozen members are from the Fort Frances area.

Under the deal, C-N says it will drop some of its proposed changes, including increasing the distance engineers have to drive each month.
