Property  \n􀁸 Industrial Track Drawings  \nForeword  \nThe initial contact for industries requiring a private siding is the Canadian Pacific (CP) Industrial Development group. Industrial Development leads a private siding project from concept to completion and is the main point of contact for the customer.  \nThe CP Engineering department is responsible to approve the engineering design for a private siding. CP may also build a portion of the private siding as required and in accordance with a construction agreement.  \nThe CP generally follows the \"Manual of Recommended Practice\" of the American Railway Engineering Association (AREMA) unless otherwise specified. All materials for the track work shall comply with applicable specifications and standards of AREMA and CP.  \nThe purpose of this document is to layout the minimum requirements for a private siding design which will allow CP to approve the plan. The document also provides general information about the construction process with CP.  \nCP requires all contractors to adhere to our “Minimum Safety Requirements for Contractor working on Railway Property” policy which is included in the appendices. Highlighted within the policy is the need for flag protection if work (including survey, construction, etc. ) is required on/around CP tracks.  \nBuilding Private Trackage and Facilities  \nDevelopment of detailed design  \nOnce a conceptual review has been completed with Industrial Development , the customer arranges for an engineering consultant to develop a detailed design for their private siding. These drawings are to be signed by a Professional Engineer.  \nSubmission of detailed design to CP  \nThe detailed design drawings prepared by the industry’s consultant are to be submitted to Industrial Development for review. The proposed design will be evaluated against CP and AREMA Standards, some of which are outlined in this document. The drawings required for submission are outlined below.  \nPlan submittals should be in PDF format with 11” x 17” sheet size. A CADD submission maybe required depending on the size and complexity of the project.  \nReview ensures that the design meets CP requirements and CP approval is required before moving to the construction stage.  \nConstruction Process   \nUpon CP approval of the design, Industrial Development will prepare a construction agreement for execution.  \nOnce the construction agreement is in place, CP will order materials and schedule CP construction forces to perform the work as detailed in the agreement. This usually involves installation of mainline turnouts, signals work, switch heaters, etc.  \nThe customer and its contractors will perform all work beyond the clearance point in accordance with the approved track design and construction agreement. The customer will coordinate its construction work with CP.
