CALGARY — Canadian Pacific Kansas City Ltd. and Lanco Group/Mi-Jack have sold their joint venture Panama Canal Railway Co. to APM Terminals, a global terminal operator and division of A.P. Moller - Maersk.

Financial terms of the deal were not immediately available.

CPKC subsidiary Kansas City Â鶹ÊÓƵern and Lanco Group/Mi-Jack formed the joint venture in 1998 when it was awarded a concession to reconstruct and operate the railway, adjacent to the canal.

It extends 76 kilometres from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
