    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE AT THURSDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1999 (202) 514-2007 WWW.USDOJ.GOV TDD (202) 514-1888 JUSTICE DEPARTMENT REQUIRES DIVESTITURE IN HARSCO CORPORATION’S ACQUISITION OF RAILROAD MAINTENANCE ASSETS Harsco to Divest Pandrol’s Switch and Crossing, and Transit Grinder Assets WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The Department of Justice today announced that it would require Harsco Corporation to sell machinery and services used in railroad maintenance to resolve competitive concerns over Harsco’s $89 million acquisition certain of assets of Pandrol Jackson Inc. and Pandrol Jackson Limited. The Department said the deal, as originally proposed, would have been anticompetitive, resulting in higher prices and lower quality for these products and services. The Department's antitrust lawsuit and proposed consent decree were filed today in federal court in Washington, D.C. The consent decree, if approved by the Court, would resolve the suit. According to the complaint, the proposed merger would have substantially lessened competition, since Harsco and Pandrol are the only two manufacturers of switch and crossing and transit grinding equipment and the only two providers of railroad switch and crossing grinding services in North America. Switch and crossing grinders and transit grinders are machines designed to restore the tracks of railroads and transit systems to their original shapes and are used to repair deformations caused by the rubbing of train wheels on rails used in railroad track switches, railroad track crossings, and transit systems. “Without this divestiture, railroads and transit systems would have had only one choice for this type of railroad maintenance equipment and services,” said Joel I.

It is also commonly referred to as train transport. In contrast to road transport, where vehicles merely run on a prepared surface, rail vehicles are also directionally guided by the tracks on which they run. Track usually consists of steel rails installed on sleepers/ties and ballast, on which the rolling stock, usually fitted with metal wheels, moves. However, other variations are also possible, such as slab track where the rails are fastened to a concrete foundation resting on a prepared subsurface. Rolling stock in railway transport systems generally has lower frictional resistance when compared with highway vehicles and the passenger and freight cars (carriages and wagons) can be coupled into longer trains. The operation is carried out by a railway company, providing transport between train stations or freight customer facilities. Power is provided by locomotives which either draw electrical power from a railway electrification system or produce their own power, usually by diesel engines. Most tracks are accompanied by a signalling system.

It is the main reason Accepted: for choosing to base this study on this subsystem. Published: Intelligent data processing allows understanding the real reliability characteristics of the assets to be maintained. The first objective of this Keywords: research is to determine the S&C reliability characteristics based on Reliability field data collection. Because field failure data are typically strongly Availability censored, an especial statistics software package is developed to Weibull model process field failure data, as commercial packages have not been found satisfactory in that respect. The resulting software, named RDAT® Switches (Reliability Data Analysis Tool) has been relied upon for this study. It RDAT is especially adapted for statistical failure data analysis. In the next step the availability of studied switches and crossings is estimated based on the reliability characteristics founded in the first step. 1.

These guidelines are not standards, and are intended as examples for various rail-highway configurations. A diagnostic inspection team will determine the ultimate design for each railroad crossing project. The ultimate design shall be compliant with the Texas Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (TMUTCD) and American Railway Engineering and Maintenance-of-Way Association (AREMA) standards. The guidelines are broken down into 3 main categories: ♦ Design of Active Device Configurations ♦ Design of Railroad Crossings Adjacent to Traffic Signals ♦ Design of Railroad Crossing Closures and Consolidations Guidelines are subject to change.

  • Includes a Day Trip to Montserrat Barcelona City Guide
    BARCELONA GUIDE INCLUDES A DAY TRIP TO MONTSERRAT BARCELONA CITY GUIDE A compelling mixture of imposing Gothic and Art Nouveau style architecture, Spanish cuisine, sangria, sunshine, beaches and chilled vibe make Barcelona one of the greatest getaway cities at any time of year. Summers here can be hot and humid, while winters very pleasant compared to much of Europe. Money wise, Barcelona is still relatively affordable, however the main attractions such as the grand Casa Mila or a visit inside the Sagrada Familia, can set you back over €20 per person. BUGETING FOR There are so many things to see and do in Barcelona. Depending BARCELONA on your budget, you can spend an entire weekend doing fun things around the city. However, if you are on a tight budget, ATTRACTIONS select the attractions you definitely want to see and stick to those. For example, both Gaudi apartments, Casa Mila (La Pedrera) and Casa Batllo are extremely expensive to visit. So maybe choose just one of them to go inside and admire the other from the outside. From our own experience, Casa Batllo always has the longest queues. If you want to skip the line, you can purchase a ticket (plus FastPass) for €28.50 per person, otherwise it will cost you €23.50 for the regular line. This Gaudi masterpiece is a joy to look at from the outside so if you are short on cash, you can always appreciate the exterior from the street level for free. Casa Mila (La Pedrera) on the other hand, is an excellent choice for discovering the life and work of one of the greatest Catalan architects, Antoni Gaudi.
