Looking for information on the use of track warrants for trains assigned to local switch jobs.  

For example, would one track warrant be used governing all switch jobs at a specific station or town?

Anyone know if the Province of Ontario, Canada has a similar Railway Act like the Province of Alberta does here: http://www.qp.alberta.ca/documents/Regs/2009_338.pdf that governs industrial railways.

I'm looking for the Ontario equivalent to guide the operations of my Domtar Pulp and Paper Mill layout but I haven't been able to find it or confirm if it even exists. If it doesn't exist I'll just use the Alberta rules.

Hi all,

Following on from a deviation into why stuff was painted red under German steam locomotives at http://model-railroad-hobbyist.com/node/27636?page=56 where I posted the following :

The red paint was for more than just being pretty. for 3 reasons

I happened to find this scene on Google imagery. It has several interesting rail features:

* Double-deck Steel Bridge (actual name) has tracks on two levels. Bridge built 1912.

* Railroad wye junction to the right of the bridge.

* Grain terminal at upper left is circled with a 'reverse loop' of unusually tight-radius railroad track.

* Three-way junction for light rail tracks at upper right.
