'- -11 j n m. i VfftKii'tf.c ict He cooks with gas 200 miles away Next winter, when it begins to snow in Oregon's Cascade mountains, the train dispatcher at Dunsmuir, California 200 miles away will press a button on the C.T.C. board, thus lighting gas heaters under rail switches out on the line, keeping them free of snow. In the old days, when heavy weather hit the Cascades, men worked around the clock to keep S.E switches clean. (If snow and ice were to pack in them so they couldn't close perfectly, we couldn't operate our trains.) Now switch heaters take over. We still have section crews on the job, of course-but they're getting more sleep than they used to. These heaters are located along a 62-mile stretch of line north of Klamath Lake. And . we're putting in more this year on another 40 miles of line in the Cascades north of Crescent Lake which will be under control of the train dispatcher at Eugene. These switch heaters are another example of how Southern Pacifio is endeav oring to apply new developments of science and invention to make our good railroad a better one. The end result is better freight and passenger service to our patrons. ' C. T. C. stands for Centralized Traffic Control. It's an electronic system which enables a dispatcher to "see" and control train movements hundreds of miles away. C T. C. increases the capacity of a railroad line by more than 50. m aY i 3 L ..kill iV' i. .......... i j? i Southern Pacific Company San Francisco Southern IPacihc D. J. Russell, President
