“BC Rail has 1441 main track miles running north-south in British
Columbia. Much of the northern branchline grades are geotechnically
sensitive. They are subject to freeze / thaw subsidence due to poor
ground / surface water drainage and local collapse from inadequate
bearing capacity for 100 ton car loadings. Our Roadmasters have found
the SolidTrack devices to be an accurate and effective means of
monitoring seasonal changes in the track geometry and ensuring that
safety standards are met.”
