rich agricultural and training countries,, the Railroad
aistory ofethe country does not yet cover fifty years.
tn.. their short existence; however, Canadian. Railways
r
nave progressed, and been so forced to meet the increasing
3emands and ..requirements of the country that their
leveloprent has been extraordinarily rapid.. -Not only
were, the ' engineers employed by the Ca'nadhtn Pacific
compelled' to press the laying of steel to the Pacific at a
pace hithertoafknown, regardless' of the many difiieulties
Old ' obstacles which they encountered both on the
plains and in the Rockies which were once thought im-
passable, but competition with other lines and the
demand of the travelling public for service, comfort and
conveniencehas stimulated the activities of the oper-
ating departments,. to such an extent that in the matter
of equipment and service railroads in this Dominion are
not surpassed on the contieent
Experiences gained in "eotistruction days" were not
lost, nor has the standard of eficiencyy which signalized
the Canadian engineer beelowered, and today Cana-
dians claim: to be the world's leaders in railway construc-
tion maintenance and operation.
Using 'unusual and efloctive methods, the Canacliatb
Pacific recently laid over r10
100 milesof 1
00 and 0
rail p a at
the rate of a mile or more an hour securing total daily
mileages up to 10 miles and over and thus establishing
another record. This while the road was under heavy
train. 3 Piaclag a new rail unit. '4 Throwinetho old rail to the,
over the new. .
traffic. First carne the tram with the new rail. By mean,
of special handling appliances the rails were dist}•ibtxt,
along the track, outside the -old steel. Following Thee
distribution of the new steel, the rails were .eked wap by
8 a e.•
r
Clal - n
p ga t,, set up end to end,. end' bol .into twee
rail units. Next, the inside spikes were pulled by a gen
detailed ail for this work, and the old rens were pushed
in towards the centre of the track. The new rail rvase
then lifted into place and spiked 'down against the,
shoulder of the old tie plates'•before being bolted into outs
continuous stretch=. Thee eneurecl that the aligninent ands,.;
surface of the treek 'remained -undisturbed. The new tie:.
plates were inserted later.
Perhaps the most interesting operation was this:•
moving of the old rail to the outside of the track where it.
could be picked up by the salvage train. The diseardod
steel was not utzbolted beingone: .. .

truck was pushod slows y by a• powerful engine, ,so this....

the new to the outside of the track •--- a simple operation,
but one which, in course of a few ears saves the Com-
pany
thousands of dollars, As a matter of feet, this eye-
temof re-laying track,, practised first by the Canadiaica
