SYSTEM SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS 1. CANADIAN RAILWAY OPERATING RULES 1.1 General Rule A – Special Instruction (4) is revised as follows:

(4) Non Railway Activities – Employees in any service connected with the movement of trains and engines are prohibited from engaging in non-railway activity which may in any way distract their attention from the full performance of their duties. Printed material not connected with the movement of trains and engines or not required in the performance of their duties, is not permitted to be openly displayed. Additionally, the use of any cellular telephone while on-duty must be restricted to matters pertaining to railway operations.

1.2 DEFINITIONS – is revised to include the following added definition:

Subdivision Track: The track indicated in the Time Table method of Control column as having Rule 105 applicable, that is an extension of the main track, and the through track at that location defined by subdivision mile signs. a) Reduced speed as required by Rule 105 is applicable to a maximum speed as indicated under

Time Table subdivision footnote “SPEEDS”. b) Rule 103.1 c) is not applicable on “Subdivision Track”.

c) Subdivision track hand operated switches must display a reflectorized green or red target or light

and target as indicated in Rule 104 a). 1.3 Rule 44 – Unusual track signal conditions

Refer to paragraph g) and add the following Special Instruction: Rail Break Sign: Track conditions of 300 feet or less may be marked by a single Rail Break Sign. The regular placement of signals as required by Rule 43 must be utilized after 24 hours if the defect is continuing. EXCEPTION: spot temporary slow orders applied by the TEST track evaluation car when testing will be indicated at the exact mileage or the defect and may not be identified with a sign or signal. When a rail break has been detected by engineering personnel and it is safe to operate a train over the break at a speed less than posted speed, the RTC will provide GBO advice to affected trains stating the authorized speed over the break and how such location is marked in the field. The break will be marked by use of a Rail Break Sign or the foreman may be located at the location of the break. Signals required by Rule 43 will not be in place.

1.4 Rule 90 – Special Instruction is revised as follows:

Delete (ii) Between 1 and 3 miles from Cautionary Limits Add (ii) Between 1 and 3 miles from Subdivision track. (iv) When entering OCS territory e.g. “Entering OCS territory at mile 103.07 Mont-Joli sub for train 402, 6900 East”.


26

1.5 Rule 104 (b) is revised to include the following special instruction:

Within subdivision tracks an employee handling a main track switch must communicate with another qualified employee from the switch location the position of the switch after it has been used.

1.6 Refer to the English version CROR Rule 104(b) Special Instruction 7.

Special Instruction 7 is changed to read :

7. Crossover switches – When a crossover connects a main track with another track (not main), permission to leave the main track switch in reversed position also applies to the switch on the other track. Trains and engines moving on other than the main track must be prepared to find such crossover switch lined and locked in either position. An employee encountering such switch lined in the reverse position or for other than normal position will be governed by instruction contained in instruction 4 for both the main track and the other main track switch.

1.7 Add the following to Rule 112 Special Instruction (5) (b)

While en-route switching, setoff or lift is being performed and there is clear evidence of trespassers at this location, this special instruction does not apply. Equipment must be secured with air brake system as per G.O.I. item 7.4 (b) (i) and handbrakes as per the minimum handbrake chart or specific number of handbrakes applicable for that location. The RTC must be advised immediately of any trespasser activity.

1.8 Special Instruction to Rule 112 " Switching with Air "

When performing switching with air in 105 territory, (non-main track), and the crew remains in the vicinity * (see footnote) of the cars being switched, these cars may remain on the track without handbrakes applied provided the cars left are 2 cars or more. Cars must be left in emergency and the angle cock fully opened.

When switching is completed or the crew is leaving the vicinity of the cars being switched, then the required number of handbrakes must be applied.

*Footnote In the application of this special instruction (remaining in the vicinity) is defined as a continuous switching operation at one end of a yard or at a customer. An example would be train 590 switching at the east end of Campbellton. The above special instruction would apply while switching with air at the east end. If however the crew proceeds to service a customer at another location such as Irving, or to switch at the west end of the yard, then the required handbrakes must be applied on the cars left.

1.9 CROR Rule 125 is revised to include the following special instruction:

In order to ensure emergency communication channel(s) are in operation and to ensure employees are familiar with the procedures as outlined in the General Operating Instructions, RTC’s will contact a train or engine crew member or an engineering field employee and direct them to initiate an emergency test call.

Each RTC’s will arrange to conduct an emergency radio test twice during his or her work week. If for any reason the test fails, the RTC will conduct the emergency radio test later during their shift. Each desk or set must maintain a record of each emergency Radio Test completed.

Example

<<Emergency test, Emergency test, Emergency test, 1234 East at mile 12 Newcastle Sub., testing the emergency call>>


27

2. New U.S. Placard The U.S. hazardous materials regulations require changes in placarding of shipments containing materials listed as poison which have an inhalation hazard.

The new placards resemble the existing poison placards, both with or without a square background, except the skull and crossbones is displayed on a black background.

These shipments will now require the use of the new placard for transportation WITHIN THE UNITED STATES. The existing placard remains in use for shipments within Canada, therefore when lifting from a customer's track, crews may encounter the display of the new and/or existing placards."

3. Due to the design of cars in series CNA 404 and CV 500, train line hoses can become uncoupled in a

non-intentional way. If it is necessary to tie the hoses in a non-conventional way, Ex: tie-raps, metallic wire, tape etc...., a crew member shall notify the RTC as soon as possible reporting the number of the affected car.

4. Ultramar Cars The train crews must have in their possession, the proper documentation for each block of cars. 5. RADIO REGULATIONS 5.1 General Requirements

a) Radio is intended to be used in connection with railway business only. Employees must not transmit unnecessary, unidentified or personal information via radio. Indecent

language must not be transmitted via radio. b) In addition to the requirements of CROR 123 paragraph (c), instructions or information not related

to train or engine movements must be acknowledged to the sender. c) Employees will be held responsible for any lost, misplaced or willfully damaged radios.

5.2 Identification and Calling Procedures

The following instructions are supplemental to those contained in CROR 121: Except in case of emergency, an employee must not initiate a transmission without first ensuring that the radio channel is not already in use. Trains or engines in possession of a clearance will be identified by their clearance designation, regular trains by their schedule number and other movements by their engine number or manifest number. When the engine number is not known, the assignment number may be used. When two or more trains with the same manifest number are operating within the same area, the engine number must be used for identification.


28

5.3 Emergency Communication Procedures The following instructions are supplemental to those instructions contained in CROR 125:

a) When initiating an emergency call:

(i) It must first be transmitted on the designated standby channel assigned of road and yard service to alert other trains or engines in the vicinity; and

(ii) It must then be immediately repeated on the RTC channel.

b) The employee initiating an EMERGENCY call shall:

(i) immediately after transmitting the word “EMERGENCY” three times transmit the identification and location of employee, train or engine, and

(ii) continue by stating the nature of the emergency and assistance required, if any.

c) An emergency message shall be repeated at frequent intervals until acknowledgement is received from the RTC or other radio user.

d) When an emergency message has been acknowledged, the RTC, or other radio user shall arrange

to hold a specific channel open and notify employees affected that silence must be maintained on that channel.

e) When an emergency is over, all employees affected shall be so advised by radio broadcast

initiated by the RTC or other radio user. 5.4 Voice Procedures

a) Employees must not take action as a result of any transmission which is not clearly understood. They must require an employee whose transmission was not clear, to repeat or clarify the portion(s) not clearly understood.

Examples: “Back FIFTY, Five Nought, car lengths, over”. “Back FIFTEEN, One Five, car lengths, over”.

b) The word “point” will be used to indicate a decimal point. c) Except as affected by CROR Rule 132 paragraph (1), numbers shall be expressed as a group.

Examples: “Proceed through my Form Y limits not exceeding FIFTEEN, One Five, MPH, over”. Note: After toning the RTC and no answer is received, the employee must not go back to the designated

stand by channel without first ensuring to close the tower. Should the employee fail to properly close the communication tower, no other employee including the RTC can use the tower, even to make an emergency call.
