The date: April 11, ]979. --by Ted Wickson O first computerized main line train control system in the world, utilizes "transponders" placed in the roadbed and on-board interrogator units to be installed in the cabs of 36 of the railway's locomotives. The transponders, which do not depend upon a power supply, obtain their power from a signal radiated from the interrogator unit as a train passes over them, and transmit a number back to the interr• ogator which is in turn transmitted to a computer in the North Vancouver dispatcher's office. The location of the train on the 150- mile line is displayed by the computer, which can be used for the trans mittal of instructions back to the train by the dispatcher. The engineer reads the message on a display unit which continuously indic• ates train speed and location.

    THE PRINCE 9E PLAYGROUNDS THE PRINCE 0/ PLMJROIMJS COME HOME BY CANADA ^VREVEL IN THE ROCKIES BEAUTIFUL BANFF ISSUED BY DIRECTION OF HON. FRANK OLIVER. MINISTER OF THE INTERIOR CANADA The Prince of Playgrounds "I have drunk the Sea's good wine, And to-day Care has bowed his head and gone away. I have drunk the Sea's good wine, Was ever step so light as mine, Was ever heart so gay ? Old voices intermingle in my brain, Voices that a little boy might hear, And dreams like fiery sunsets come again, Informulate and vain. But great with glories of the buccaneer." At the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition you have had spread before you the natural resources and the wonder-wares of the merchant of the Pacific littoral from Alaskan snow- crests to the humid marts of Mexico. And you have been somewhat jostled in the process. From the effete East you reached the Pacific by devious ways, tired and travel-worn. Soaked with information, with your knowledge widened and your sympathies deepened, you now find yourself toward the end of your vacation, the days are ticking themselves off ominously. The Sea has revived you and set throbbing old life- currents that the strenuous years had almost strangled at their source. The unexpressed wish is that some Titan force could lift you up, and drop you down at your desk of endeavor or home hearthstone of quiet without the heat and dust and discomfort of the journey home, depositing you "with tightened sinew and clear blood imbued with Sunlight and with Sea." Do you know how to do it? "Come home by Canada!" Down at the dock in Seattle there waits for you the fleetest passenger-steamer on the Pacific, the Princess Victoria with a developed speed of 1S knots.

  • Local Railway Items from Area Papers - 1932
    Local Railway Items from Area Papers - 1932 07/01/1932 Ottawa Citizen Renfrew Ottawa Coal Shoveller Winner Of Contest With Freight Train William McDermotl, of 13 Champagne Avenue, Fortunate Man to he in Good Physical Condition After Slipping in Path of Oncoming Cars. When William McDermott, 39 years old, of 15 Champagne avenue, got a job shovelling coal this morning, he didn't think he'd have to wrestle with a freight train before he got to his place of work. McDermott won the bout, coming out of his unusual experience without a scratch. About 10 o'clock this morning, McDermott, who has been unemployed for some tune, applied to the branch office of J. J. Heney and Son. Catherine street, for a job. The foreman there ordered him to shovel coal into the bin of the Canada Bread Co., about 150 feet from the Heney office, direct from the coal freight car. Shovel in hand and all set to work, McDermott commenced walking alongside the Canadian National Railway tracks near the Bronson avenue crossing, unmindful of the approaching engine and freight cars coming in the onnosite direction. He had gone about fifty feet when he slipped and fell into the path ol the freight train. The shovel wss thrown from his hand. Fortunately McDermott retained his presence of mind and when he was struck, grabbed hold of the couplers at the rear of the freight car and was carried about 100 feet before the engine came to a halt. His encounter with the freight concluded McDermott calmly, as it nothing extraordinary had happened, walked to where his shovel was lying along the tracks and then once more wended his way towards the Canada Bread Co.
