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.
