September 08, 2021

Dear Valued Customer:

As a courtesy notice, effective October 1, 2021, fuel surcharge on rate publications referencing the applicable KCSR and KCSM Rules Publication tariffs will be adjusted using the following: 

Per mile and per KM amounts apply to price authorities referencing fuel calculation based on distance. Percent of revenue amounts apply to Intermodal price authorities referencing fuel calculation based on this method.

KCSR fuel surcharge was adjusted in accordance with:

• Rules Publications KCS 9011, Item 240, based upon the WTI average price, and Item 245, based upon the OHD/Percentage Weekly – U.S. Intermodal.
• Rules Publication KCS 9012, Item 240, based upon the average price per gallon of highway diesel fuel.

KCSM fuel surcharge was adjusted in accordance with:

• Rules Publication KCSM, Items 3.6 and 3.7, based upon variation in the average price of fuel (PEMEX TAR Irapuato, before VAT).

The fuel surcharge updates can be found in the Fuel Surcharge page in the Customer Resources area of our website.
