Research on Railroad Ballast Specification and Evaluation
Transportation Research Record 1006 l Research on Railroad Ballast Specification and Evaluation GERALD P. RAYMOND ABSTRACT Research leading to recommended procedures for ballast selection and grading are presented. The ballast selection procedure is also presented and offers a sequential screening process to eliminate undesirable materials. The procedure classifies the surviving ballasts in terms of annual gross tonnage based on 30 tonne (33 ton) axle loading and American Railway Engineering Association grad ing No. 4. The effect of grading variation and its effect on track performance is also presented. From 1970 to 1978 Transport Canada Research and De color, and chemical composition. From a ballast per velopment Centre, Canadian National Railway Company, formance viewpoint, mineral hardness, generally and Canadian Pacific Limited cosponsored a research based on Mohs hardness scale, is of considerable im program at Queen's University through the Canadian portance.

Again, for the record, we are solicitors for Teck Resources Limited and its affiliates Teck Coal Limited and Teck Metals Limited (collectively, “Teck”) in connection with the Consultation. We have appended a further report of Dr. Lawrence I. Gould, Ph.D., Professor of Finance and Senior Scholar at the Asper Business School, University of Manitoba, together with letters from Teck, the Western Grain Elevator Association and the Canadian Canola Growers Association. As we understand it, the Agency places a high degree of reliance on the financial statements provided by CN and CP, as well as on their submissions with respect to capital structure, as demonstrated by the language of Appendix A of Agency Decision 425-R-2011. In particular, CN’s and CP’s capital structure to finance net rail investment seems to us to rely too heavily on decisions by CN and CP both as to the proportions and the amounts of debt and equity. -

Canadian Pacific at the Glenbow: a Hundred Years of the CPR in Western Canada
Canadian Pacific at the Glenbow: A Hundred Years of the CPR in Western Canada by GLENN T. WRIGHT All aboard! Two hundred and fifty historians, archivists, curators, and rail fans heard the traditional call of the railway porter and gathered at the Glenbow Museum last September to commemorate one hundred years of the Canadian Pacific Railway in Western Canada. Sponsored by the Glenbow-Alberta Institute with assistance from the National Museums Corporation and Canadian Pacific Limited. the festivities consisted of three major elements. In August the celebration began with the opening of the "Great CPR Exposition," a large exhibition that takes a comprehensive look at the construction, arrival and impact of the CPR on the Canadian West. During the month of September, the CPR West Conference attracted a good number of professionals and non-professionals and demonstrated that research on various aspects of CPR history is alive and well. To complement both the exhibition and the conference, Glenbow also sponsored the publication of a souvenir book, Trailoflron: The CPR andthe Birth qfthr West by William McKee and Georgeen Klassen. The centrepiece of Glenbow's tribute to the CPR is the6'Great CPR Exposition," the largest and most ambitious exhibition ever mounted by the Museum. Glenbow staff spent over two years collecting materials and conducting original research, and the result is impressive. The exhibition is an attempt to portray the history of the Canadian Pacific Railway and its impact on the social and economic development of Western Canada from the time of its inception and construction to the 1930s. Historical records have been drawn from virtually every media that one would find in an archives or museum. -

CANADIAN RAILWAY OBSERVATIONS Updated Version 04/15/07 _______________________________________________________ By William Baird MAY 2007 CANADIAN NATIONAL CN Locomotives Retired in March and April: IC SW14 1507 on March 20th, DMIR SD38-2 209, on March 26th. CN C44-9W 2540 on March 29th, WC GP40 3005 on April 3rd. DMIR SD40-3 418 on April 10th (Note: This is not an SD40T-3, as there were two ex-CSXT units included in this rebuild with the Tunnel Motors). CN SD50F 5439 was released from NRE-Dixmoor in March 2007. This unit has received a Tier II zero emissions compliant engine, and new yellow frame striping. Photo - Ken Lanovich http://csxchicago.gotdns.com:6003/CN_Trains/SmallPicsRoll57/0024025-R1-059-28.jpg In late March, CN GMD-1 1436 was placed in the storage lines at the Woodcrest shop. 1436 arrived on March 19th from Toronto, with fire damage. This unit joins CN GMD-1’s 1414 and 1443 which have been in storage at Woodcrest for almost two years. When 1414 and 1443 first arrived they were to have truck change outs. Both units have had their trucks removed, but have never been replaced. Over the last year they have had quite a few parts removed, so it is unlikely that these two will ever run again. CN GMD-1 1436 appears to have suffered a main generator fire. Safety conscious CN has modified CN SD70M-2 8020 at MacMillan Yard shop on 3- 27-2007 with new bright CN orange steps / grab irons on the rear of the raised walkway behind the cab. -
