Description of the Business [Abstract] | |
Description of the Business | Note1. Description of the Business Kansas City Southern (KCS or the Company), a Delaware corporation, was initially organized in 1962 as Kansas City Southern Industries, Inc. In 2002, the Company formally changed its name to Kansas City Southern. KCS is a holding company with principal operations in rail transportation. The Company is engaged primarily in the freight rail transportation business operating through a single coordinated rail network under one reportable business segment. Effective January1, 2008, the Company realigned its segments into one reportable segment to reflect the strategic focus on the single coordinated rail network. Prior to January1, 2008, the Company reported two segments. All prior period segment information has been recast to conform to the current year presentation. The Company generates revenues and cash flows by providing its customers with freight delivery services both within its regions, and throughout North America through connections with other ClassI rail carriers. KCS customers conduct business in a number of different industries, including electric-generating utilities, chemical and petroleum products, paper and forest products, agriculture and mineral products, automotive products and intermodal transportation. The primary subsidiaries of the Company consist of the following: The Kansas City Southern Railway Company (KCSR), a wholly-owned consolidated subsidiary; Kansas City Southern de Mxico, S.A. de C.V. (KCSM), is a wholly-owned subsidiary which operates under the rights granted by the Concession acquired from the Mexican government in 1997 (the Concession) as described below; Mexrail, Inc. (Mexrail), a wholly-owned consolidated subsidiary; which wholly owns The Texas Mexican Railway Company (Tex-Mex); Meridian Speedway, LLC (MSLLC), a seventy-two percent owned consolidated affiliate. On December1, 2005, KCS and KCSR entered into a transaction agreement with Norfolk Southern Corporation (NS) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Alabama Great Southern Railroad Company (AGS), providing for the formation of a limited liability company between the parties relating to the ownership and improvement of the KCSR rail line between Meridian, Mississippi and Shreveport, Louisiana, which is the portion of the KCSR rail line between Dallas, Texas and Meridian known as the Meridian Speedway Combined with equity investments in: Panama Canal Railway Company (PCRC), a fifty percent owned unconsolidated affiliate which owns all of the common stock of Panarail Tourism Company (Panarail); Southern Capital Corporation, LLC (Southern Capital), a fifty percent owned unconsolidated affiliate that owns and leases locomotives and other equipment; Ferrocarril y Terminal del Valle de Mxico, S.A. de C.V.

Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Significant Accounting Policies | Note2. Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation.The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented using the accrual basis of accounting and include the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. The equity method of accounting is used for all entities in which the Company or its subsidiaries have significant influence, but not a controlling interest. The Company evaluates less than majority owned investments for consolidation pursuant to consolidation and variable interest entity guidance. The Company does not have any less than majority owned investments requiring consolidation. Basis of Presentation.During the third quarter of 2009, the Company identified that changes in accounts payable and accrued liabilities related to capital spending had not been correctly presented in the Companys prior period consolidated cash flow statements. Changes in these accruals had previously been classified within cash flows from operating activities and should have been classified as capital expenditures within investing activities, in order to report capital expenditures on a cash basis rather than on an accrual basis. The accompanying consolidated cash flow statements have been revised to present capital expenditures on a cash basis for the years ended December31, 2008 and 2007. This revision did not impact the change in cash and cash equivalents as previously reported, however, net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $42.7million, from $455.7million to $413.0million and capital expenditures and cash used by investing activities decreased by $42.7million from $580.7million to $538.0million for the year ended December31, 2008. For the year ended December31, 2007, net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $13.7million from $381.5million to $367.8million and capital expenditures and cash used by investing activities decreased by $13.7million from $380.5million to $366.8million. This revision did not impact operating income or net income, working capital, any earnings per share measures as previously reported. Use of Estimates.The accounting and financial reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S.GAAP). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include those related to the recoverability and useful lives of assets, environmental remediation, personal injury claims, and deferred tax assets. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Revenue Recognition.The Company recognizes freig |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings Per Share | Note3. Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Nonvested stock awards granted to employees and officers is included in weighted average shares as it is earned for purposes of computing basic earnings per common share. Diluted earnings per share adjusts basic earnings per common share for the effects of potentially dilutive common shares, if the effect is not anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive common shares include the dilutive effects of shares issuable upon the conversion of preferred stock to common stock and shares issuable under the Stock Option and Performance Award Plan. The following table reconciles the weighted average shares used for the basic earnings per share computation to the shares used for the diluted earnings per share computation (in thousands): 2009 2008 2007 Basic shares 93,145 83,674 75,832 Additional weighted average shares attributable to: Convertible preferred stock 13,882 20,389 Stock options 502 987 1,327 Nonvested shares 2 59 68 Diluted shares 93,649 98,602 97,616 Potentially dilutive shares excluded from the calculation (in thousands): 2009 2008 2007 Stock options where the exercise price is greater than the average market price of common shares 50 64 39 Convertible preferred stock which are anti-dilutive 7,000 The following table reconciles net income available to common stockholders for purposes of basic earnings per share to net income for purposes of diluted earnings per share (in millions): 2009 2008 2007 Net income available to common stockholders for purposes of computing basic earnings per share $ 57.0 $ 168.7 $ 134.0 Effect of dividends on conversion of convertible preferred stock 14.9 19.6 Net income available to common stockholders for purposes of computing diluted earnings per share $ 57.0 $ 183.6 $ 153.6 |

Fair Value Measurements [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Note6. Fair Value Measurements The Companys short-term financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. The carrying value of the short-term financial instruments approximates the fair value due to their short-term nature. The fair value of the Companys debt is estimated using quoted market prices when available. When quoted market prices are not available, fair value is estimated based on current market interest rates for debt with similar maturities and credit quality. The fair value of the Companys debt was $2,031.1million and $1,911.5million at December31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The financial statement carrying value was $1,980.0million and $2,086.1million at December31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The Companys assets and liabilities recorded at fair value have been categorized based upon a fair value hierarchy as described in Note2 Significant Accounting Policies. The following table presents the Companys assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December31 (in millions): Fair Value Measurements Net Assets (Liabilities) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 at Fair Value 2009 Interest rate contracts $ $ (4.9 ) $ $ (4.9 ) Net asset (liabilities), at fair value $ $ (4.9 ) $ $ (4.9 ) Fair Value Measurements Net Assets (Liabilities) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 at Fair Value 2008 Investments (i) $ $ $12.4 $ 12.4 Interest rate contracts (5.7 ) (5.7 ) Net asset (liabilities), at fair value $ $ (5.7 ) $12.4 $ 6.7 (i) Investments with Level1 and/or Level2 inputs are classified as a Level3 investment in their entirety if it has at least one significant Level3 input. The Company determines the fair values of its derivative financial instrument positions based upon pricing models using inputs observed from actively quoted markets. Pricing models take into consideration the contract terms as well as other inputs, including forward interest rate curves. As prescribed by the guidance, the Company recognizes the fair value of its derivative financial instruments as a Level2 valuation. The Company determined the fair value of its investment in a financial institution cash management fund based upon the value of the underlying investments. Underlying investments were valued using quoted market prices, if available. If quoted market prices were not available due to an inactive market, adjustments using unobservable inputs were required to determine the fair value. Because of these unobservable inputs, the Company recognized the fair value of its investment as a Level3 valuation. The following table presents additional information about this investm |

On May31, 2007, KCSR entered into Amendment No.1 to the 2006 Credit Agreement which provided for a new $75.0million term loan facility (the Term Loan C Facility) under the 2006 Credit Agreement. The revolving credit facility bears interest at either LIBOR, or an alternate base rate, plus a spread based on the Companys leverage ratio as defined in the 2006 Credit Agreement.

Income Taxes | Note8. Income Taxes Current income tax expense represents the amounts expected to be reported on the Companys income tax returns, and deferred tax expense or benefit represents the change in net deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates that will be in effect when these differences reverse. Valuation allowances are recorded as appropriate to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount considered likely to be realized. Tax Expense.Income tax expense (benefit) consists of the following components (in millions): 2009 2008 2007 Current: Federal $ (1.1 ) $ 0.9 $ State and local 1.3 (0.2 ) 0.8 Foreign 3.0 Total current 3.2 0.7 0.8 Deferred: Federal 35.4 40.8 33.2 State and local 2.1 7.9 2.4 Foreign (6.1 ) 15.1 30.7 Total deferred 31.4 63.8 66.3 Total income tax expense $ 34.6 $ 64.5 $ 67.1 The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities follow at December 31 (in millions): 2009 2008 Liabilities: Depreciation $ 579.7 $ 545.6 Investments 74.0 71.0 Concession rights 154.6 152.5 Other, net 16.7 8.5 Gross deferred tax liabilities 825.0 777.6 Assets: Loss carryovers (276.5 ) (284.5 ) Book reserves not currently deductible for tax (124.6 ) (99.3 ) Vacation accrual (3.6 ) (3.7 ) Other, net (28.6 ) (19.8 ) Gross deferred tax assets before valuation allowance (433.3 ) (407.3 ) Valuation allowance on loss carryovers 23.7 22.9 Gross deferred tax assets (409.6 ) (384.4 ) Net deferred tax liability $ 415.4 $ 393.2 Tax Rates.Differences between the Companys effective income tax rates and the U.S.federal income tax statutory rates of 35% follow (in millions): 2009 2008 2007 Income tax expense using the statutory rate in effect $ 36.3 $ 87.0 $ 77.5 Tax effect of: |

Share-Based Compensation [Abstract] | |
Share-Based Compensation | Note10. Share-Based Compensation On October7, 2008, the Companys stockholders approved the Kansas City Southern 2008 Stock Option and Performance Award Plan (the 2008 Plan). The 2008 plan became effective on October14, 2008 and replaces the Kansas City Southern 1991 Amended and Restated Stock Option and Performance Award Plan (the 1991 Plan). The 2008 Plan provides for the granting of up to 2.3million shares of the Companys common stock to eligible persons as defined in the 2008 Plan. Outstanding equity awards granted under the 1991 Plan and the 2008 Plan (the Plans) are to be governed by the terms and conditions of each individual plan and the related award agreements. Stock Option Plan.Options will be granted under the 2008 Plan at 100% of the closing market price of the Companys stock on the date of grant. Under the 1991 Plan, options were granted at 100% of the average market price of the Companys stock on the date of grant. Options generally have a 5year cliff vesting period and are exercisable over the 10year contractual term, except that options outstanding with limited rights (LRs) or limited stock appreciation rights (LSARs), become immediately exercisable upon certain defined circumstances constituting a change in control of the Company. The Plans include provisions for stock appreciation rights, LRs and LSARs. All outstanding options include LSARs, except for options granted to non-employee Directors prior to 1999. The grant date fair value, less estimated forfeitures, is recorded to expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The weighted-average assumptions used were as follows: 2009 2008 2007 Expected dividend yield 0 % 0 % 0 % Expected volatility 42.86 % 32.28 % 34.17 % Risk-free interest rate 1.66 % 3.29 % 4.70 % Expected term (years) 7.50 7.50 7.50 Weighted-average grant date fair value of stock options granted $ 6.45 $ 18.33 $ 16.04 The Company has not paid dividends to common shareholders since January of 2000 and currently does not expect to pay dividends to common stockholders in the future. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Companys stock price over a term equal to the estimated life of the options. The risk-free interest rate is determined based on the U.S.Treasury rates approximating the expected life of the options granted, which represents the period of time the awards are expected to be outstanding and is based on the historical experience of similar awards. The following table summarizes combined activity under the Plans: Weighted- Weighted- Average Average Exercise Remaining Aggregate Number of Price Contractual Intrinsic |

Profit Sharing and Other Postretirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
Profit Sharing and Other Postretirement Benefits | Note11. Profit Sharing and Other Postretirement Benefits Health and Welfare.Certain U.S.employees that have met age and service requirements are eligible for medical benefits and life insurance coverage during retirement. The retiree medical plan is contributory and provides benefits to retirees, their covered dependents and beneficiaries. The plan provides for annual adjustments to retiree contributions, and also contains, depending on the coverage selected, certain deductibles, co-payments, co-insurance, and coordination with Medicare. Certain management employees also maintain their status under a collective bargaining agreement, which permits them access to post-retirement medical under the multi-employer plan described below. The life insurance plan is non-contributory and covers union retirees only. The Companys policy, in most cases, is to fund benefits payable under these plans as the obligations become due. However, certain plan assets (money market funds held in a life insurance company) exist with respect to life insurance benefits. KCSM Post-Employment Benefits. Mexican law requires that the Company provide certain post-employment benefits to its Mexican union and non-union employees. These plans provide statutorily calculated benefits which are payable upon retirement, death, disability, voluntary or involuntary termination to employees who meet applicable service requirements. In addition to these statutorily required post-employment benefits, the Company and the union have been engaged in negotiations regarding an incremental benefit that would be paid to the Companys union employees upon retirement. The current calculated liability related to this incremental benefit is based on various factors including retirement eligibility based on a combination of age and years of credited service and the employees salary at the time of retirement. As of the date of this filing, the Company was still negotiating with the union regarding this benefit and details of this benefit continue to be discussed. The Company uses December 31 as the measurement date for its retirement benefit obligations. Net Periodic Benefit Cost, Plan Obligations and Funded Status Components of the net cost (benefit) for these plans were as follows for the years ended December 31 (inmillions): Health and Welfare Mexico Post-Employment Benefit 2009 2008 2007 2009 2008 2007 Service cost $ 0.1 $ 0.1 $ 0.1 $ 2.5 $ 1.9 $ 2.0 Interest cost 0.3 0.4 0.4 1.4 1.4 1.2 Expected return on plan assets Actuarial (gain) loss(i) (0.2 ) 0.2 0.1 (3.6 ) 1.0 (1.0 ) Foreign currency (gain) loss 0.7 (3.8 ) Prior service credit(ii) (0.3 ) (0.3 ) (0.3 ) |

Commitments and Contingencies | Note12. Commitments and Contingencies Concession Duty.Under the Concession, the Mexican government has the right to receive a payment from the Company equivalent to 0.5% of the gross revenue during the first 15years of the Concession period and 1.25% of the gross revenue during the remaining years of the Concession period. For the year ended December31, 2009, the concession duty expense, which is recorded within operating expenses, amounted to $3.2million, compared to $4.3million for the same periods in 2008 and 2007. Litigation.The Company is a party to various legal proceedings and administrative actions, all of which, except as set forth below, are of an ordinary, routine nature and incidental to its operations. Included in these proceedings are various tort claims brought by current and former employees for job-related injuries and by third parties for injuries related to railroad operations. KCS aggressively defends these matters and has established liability reserves, which management believes are adequate to cover expected costs. Although it is not possible to predict the outcome of any legal proceeding, in the opinion of management, other than those proceedings described in detail below, such proceedings and actions should not, individually, or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition and liquidity. However, a material adverse outcome in one or more of these proceedings could have a material adverse impact on the results of operations in a particular quarter or fiscal year. Environmental Liabilities.The Companys U.S.operations are subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. The major U.S.environmental laws to which the Company is subject include, among others, the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA, also known as the Superfund law), the Toxic Substances Control Act, the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, and the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act. CERCLA can impose joint and several liabilities for cleanup and investigation costs, without regard to fault or legality of the original conduct, on current and predecessor owners and operators of a site, as well as those who generate, or arrange for the disposal of, hazardous substances. The Company does not believe that compliance with the requirements imposed by the environmental legislation will impair its competitive capability or result in any material additional capital expenditures, operating or maintenance costs. The Company is, however, subject to environmental remediation costs as described below. The Companys Mexico operations are subject to Mexican federal and state laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment through the establishment of standards for water discharge, water supply, emissions, noise pollution, hazardous substances and transportation and handling of hazardous and solid waste. The Mexican government may bring administrative and criminal proceedings and impose economic sanctions against companies that violate environmental laws, and temporarily or even permanently close non-c |

Settlement Agreement with TMM In furtherance of the Companys strategy for expansion into Mexico, on December15, 2004, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Acquisition Agreement (the Acquisition Agreement) with Grupo TMM, S.A.B. (TMM, formerly Grupo TMM, S.A.), and other parties under which KCS acquired full control of KCSM through the purchase of shares of common stock of Grupo KCSM. On September24, 2007, KCS entered into a Settlement Agreement (the Agreement) with TMM, TMM Logistics, S.A. de C.V., a subsidiary of TMM, and VEX Asesores Corporativos, S.A. de C.V. (formerly Jos F. Serrano International Business, S.A. de C.V.) (the Consulting Firm), resolving certain claims and disputes over liabilities established as part of KCS acquisition of KCSM (successor by merger to Grupo KCSM). Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, KCS agreed to pay TMM $54.1million in cash to retire two notes totaling $86.6million which were negotiated in 2005 at the closing of KCS acquisition of KCSM to cover certain post-closing contingencies and tax liabilities. The parties also agreed to terminate the consulting agreement between KCS and the Consulting Firm and make the final annual payment of $3.0million, payable on settlement. The settlement amount of $57.1million was paid by KCS to TMM on October1, 2007. |

Derivative Instruments [Abstract] | |
Derivative Instruments | Note14. Derivative Instruments The Company does not engage in the trading of derivative financial instruments except where the Companys objective is to manage the variability of forecasted interest payments attributable to changes in interest rates or fuel price risk. In general, the Company enters into derivative transactions in limited situations based on managements assessment of current market conditions and perceived risks. However, management intends to respond to evolving business and market conditions and in doing so, may enter into such transactions more frequently as deemed appropriate. Credit Risk.As a result of the use of derivative instruments, the Company is exposed to counterparty credit risk. The Company manages the counterparty credit risk by entering into contracts with large financial institutions with which the Company has an established banking relationship. As of December31, 2009, the Company did not expect any losses as a result of default of its counterparties. Interest Rate Swaps.During 2008, the Company entered into five forward starting interest rate swaps, which have been designated as cash flow hedges. The forward starting interest rate swaps effectively convert interest payments from variable rates to fixed rates. The swaps are highly effective and as a result there will be deminimus earnings impact associated with ineffectiveness of these hedges. The hedging instruments have an aggregate notional amount of $250.0million at an average fixed rate of 2.71%, with forward starting settlements indexed to the three-month LIBOR occurring every quarter, expiring September 2010 through March 2011. Fuel Derivative Transactions.In January 2009, the Company entered into fuel swap agreements, which had been designated as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instruments was reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affected earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of the effectiveness were recognized in current earnings. During the second quarter of 2009, it became probable that the hedged transactions would not occur as forecasted. Therefore, the hedging relationship was dedesignated on May31, 2009 and hedge accounting was discontinued. Changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument after dedesignation are recorded in earnings. As of December31, 2009, the Company has no outstanding fuel swap agreements.

Financial information reported at this level, such as revenues, operating income and cash flows from operations, is used by corporate management, including the Companys chief operating decision-maker, in evaluating overall financial and operational performance, market strategies, as well as the decisions to allocate capital resources. The Companys strategic initiatives, which drive its operational direction, are developed and managed at the Companys headquarters and targets are communicated to its various regional activity centers. Corporate management is responsible for, among others, KCS marketing strategy, the oversight of large cross-border customer accounts, overall planning and control of infrastructure and rolling stock, the allocation of capital resources based upon growth and capacity constraints over the coordinated network, and other functions such as financial planning, accounting, and treasury. The role of each region is to manage the operational activities and monitor and control costs over the coordinated rail network. Such cost control is required to ensure that pre-established efficiency standards set at the corporate level are attained.
