Shipping a car by rail in Canada

It used to be under a grand from bc back to toronto because they don't build cars out here and have all those empty cars going back but the CN /CP whatever they are called these days contracted it all out to an outside company or new division within ,not sure which but the price went through the roof , in 2005 they wanted 1400 to ship my little spitfire from Windsor to Van and 765 to ship my big ole grand prix the other way , last year it they wanted over 2 grand to ship my barracuda, I was thinking of going to the big mopar deal in southwestern ontario and didn't have enough time off to drive both ways but the price was more than I could afford to blow like that
