  • Mesaʼs 51St Annual Meeting
    PRELIMINARY PROGRAM VER. 10-12-17 Jake McGuire Destination DC MESAʼs 51st Annual Meeting Washington DC November 18-21 We return to DC for MESA’s 51st annual meeting at the Washington Marriott Wardman Park Hotel where we have met every three years since 1999. The hotel is located in a lovely residential area near the National Zoo, but a nearby stop on the metro red line makes all parts of DC easily accessible. The program of 230+ sessions (see pages 12-51) spread over four days will offer a smorgasbord to whet the appetite of any Middle East studies aficionado. MESA’s affiliate groups meet mostly on Saturday, November 18 (see pages 10-11) and the first program session begins that day at 5:30pm. Panels run all day Sunday and Monday and end at 3pm on Tuesday. The book bazaar will be open Sunday and Monday from 9am to 6pm and on Tuesday from 8am to 12pm (see pages 8-9). MESAʼs ever-popular FilmFest (see the teaser on pages 6-7) begins screenings on Saturday morning and runs through Tuesday until around 2pm. The MESA Presidential Address & Awards will be held Sunday evening from 6pm to 7:30pm, and the MESA Members Meeting on Monday evening from 6pm to 8:00pm. As you will see, it’s business as usual, except of course for a new administration that is determined to ban nationals of six Muslim majority countries from traveling to the US, and MESA having joined a lawsuit against the ban that is making its way to the US Supreme Court in October.

The City does not have a Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) system to Received in revised form 18 October 2020 track the position of trains on the Red Line, and very few trains in the fleet are even GPS equipped. Therefore, we Accepted 20 October 2020 propose DAS tracking as an alternative to the retrofit and development of a GPS-based system or as a companion Available online 22 October 2020 to a future system. Trains on the Red Line register as intensity peaks in the DAS soundfield, and we deduce the DAS distance between the City Hall LRT station (the origin) and the Tuscany station (the terminus) for all trains Keywords: Tracking on the system by tracking intensity peaks. Commuter train To estimate DAS position from DAS distance, we use the speedometer logs and GPS-position logs from one of the Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) few GPS-equipped trains on the Red Line.

  • Upper Canada Railway Society
    INCORPORATED 1952 '~"^"-T NUMBER 454 AUGUST 1987 UPPER CANADA RAILWAY SOCIETY BOX 12 2 STATION "A TORONTO, ONTARIO A long line of CN SW800 switchers was photographed in storage at MacMillan Yard, Toronto, July 4, 1987. There is some doubt that the units will be returned to active duty. Mills This graceful curved bridge will carry Calgary Transit's new Northwest LRT Line across the Bow River, just north of downtown. --M.F. Jones This strange-looking beast is a CN SW1200M (GS413a), incorporating the body and trucks of a Geep, and the cab of a CM yard switcher. Reportedly two of these rebuilds have been completed to date. St. Jerome, Que., Sept. 13, 1986. —Gary Zuters photo/Ben Mills collection AUGUST 1987 3 NORTHWEST by M. F. Jones TO ROLL Gorgeous weather since last winter enabled the construction pace on Calgary's North'West LRT to accelerate so rapidly that, despite many attempts to put it all down for an article, the NEWS• LETTER would have been ill served by a less than up to date status of current improvements; they varied almost day to day in major ways. With the dust finally settled in mid-June, I took a long look at the line and started on a series of rewrites. This one, dated July 20, 1987, was com• pleted after I had a very extensive look at all of the line. It is virtually ready to run and I have it on good opinion that sporadic testing was to have begun in late July, with almost daily non-revenue running during August and a planned opening date of Sept.
