Non-automatic crossing at grade mile 2.13 (Conroy Rd) is interconnected with self-restoring derail at mile 2.16. Derail and warning devices are activated with the touch-tone pads on locomotive radios. This is done on channel 12, AAR 29-29 by entering code number 0021611 followed by the # button. A message stating that the derail is in the non-derailing position will be broadcast on the same channel. Trains or engines need not stop at the stop boards once the derail and warning devices have been activated in the above manner.. If the above procedure fails to activate the derail and warning devices, trains or engines must stop at stop board and activate the device manually by using the push buttons located either side of the crossing to north side of the track. The derail has a 4-minute timer, and will revert to the derailing position if circuit is not occupied within that time. It is suggested that the derail be activated 30 seconds prior to occupying circuit so as not to delay traffic.

  • Appendix 5 Station Descriptions And
    Appendix 5 Station Descriptions and Technical Overview Stage 2 light rail transit (LRT) stations will follow the same standards, design principles, and connectivity and mobility requirements as Stage 1 Confederation Line. Proponent Teams were instructed, through the guidelines outlined in the Project Agreement (PA), to design stations that will integrate with Stage 1, which include customer facilities, accessibility features, and the ability to support the City’s Transportation Master Plan (TMP) goals for public transit and ridership growth. The station features planned for the Stage 2 LRT Project will be designed and built on these performance standards which include: Barrier-free path of travel to entrances of stations; Accessible fare gates at each entrance, providing easy access for customers using mobility devices or service animals; Tactile wayfinding tiles will trace the accessible route through the fare gates, to elevators, platforms and exits; Transecure waiting areas on the train platform will include accessible benches and tactile/Braille signs indicating the direction of service; Tactile warning strips and inter-car barriers to keep everyone safely away from the platform edge; Audio announcements and visual displays for waiting passengers will precede each train’s arrival on the platform and will describe the direction of travel; Service alerts will be shown visually on the passenger information display monitors and announced audibly on the public-address system; All wayfinding and safety signage will be provided following the applicable accessibility standards (including type size, tactile signage, and appropriate colour contrast); Clear, open sight lines and pedestrian design that make wayfinding simple and intuitive; and, Cycling facilities at all stations including shelter for 80 per cent of the provided spaces, with additional space protected to ensure cycling facilities can be doubled and integrated into the station’s footprint.

  • Revitalization of Rail Passenger Service
    REVIVING RAIL PASSENGER SERVICE IN NORTHERN ONTARIO ‘IS IT POSSIBLE AND HOW CAN IT HAPPEN’ A DISCUSSION PAPER Prepared and developed by: W.H. (Howie) Wilcox, cmilt Transportation Logistics Consultant Sault Ste. Marie, ON September 21, 2009 INTRODUCTION: This paper has been produced to give a brief history of the dilution of passenger train service in the north, what it looks like today and how it could possibly be revised with the right attention in key areas. The concepts contained herein are those of the writer only with very little input from any other source other than research of information available in the public domain. Some of the ideas put forth are easily implemented with few adjustments to current systems while others are more complicated – possibly requiring government intervention, especially from the Province of Ontario. HISTORY: With advent of the opening of the Trans Canada Highway around Lake Superior and the introduction of regularly, scheduled air services from the north, the rail passenger services of both Canadian Pacific and Canadian National slowly declined and VIA Rail was created to take their places. Eventually, VIA consolidated its runs so that it only operates on the CN Transcontinental line through Sudbury to Winnipeg. Communities like Thunder Bay, Dryden and Kenora lost their passenger services. The Sault Ste. Marie to Sudbury Budd car that was so badly marketed (poor connections and slow service), many abandoned it for other means and service was discontinued in 1976. Only a few services survived until today and they are maintained because the areas serviced are considered remote with no other means of conveyance.

    Superior Proposal to Combine With Kansas City Southern INVESTOR PRESENTATION April 2021 Forward-Looking Statements Certain statements included in this presentation constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and under Canadian securities laws, including statements based on management’s assessment and assumptions and publicly available information with respect to KCS, regarding the proposed transaction between CN and KCS, the expected benefits and synergies of the proposed transaction, future opportunities for the combined company and future shareholder returns. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions.

  • Local Railway Items from Ottawa Papers - 2011
    Local Railway Items from Ottawa Papers - 2011 Wednesday 05/01/2011 Kingston Daily British Whi Kingston (CN) Station lease deal derails The roof on the old Montreal Street railway station is caved in -- and so has a deal to lease the crumbling heritage building for commercial use.CN Railway spokesman Jim Feeny confirmed yesterday there is "no prospect at the moment" for a deal it had hoped to sign for a commercial development. Instead, CN Railway, the prop-e rty owner, and the City of Kingston will face off in court later this month. The city is trying to uphold a work order that would force the railroad to stabilize the structure before it falls down completely. Because this is a second possible offence -- the city successfully prosecuted CN about 10 years ago -- the company now faces a possible penalty of $200,000. "We generally would request a fine but also to have the property standards upheld, to have it fixed by a particular date," said city building department manager Steve Murphy. "We've charged them for not bringing it back in compliance. The case has been postponed a couple of times. Our goal is not to get a fine but to have the building preserved." Feeny said CN's focus now is on stabilizing the building. "We had an engineering inspection done," he said. "There's nothing been established about what its use might be. In the next few days we should be in a position to talk about what we will do." Any work on the building must be approved by the federal Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada.
