Sun Kinks & Track Buckling

This webcast will give you a thorough overview of thermal forces and CWR adjusting while providing you with sound methods to identify track areas that may be susceptible to sun kinks.
As prevention is key, this webcast will use examples and calculations to teach you ways  to identify and remedy any situations that portend a sun kink or track buckle.
You will also learn how to apply strategies that will help prevent derailments (and help you sleep better at night knowing the trains are running without incident).        
 
By the end of the course you will know about:

Reviewing track structure
Thermal forces and calculations
Internal forces and how to calculate them
Understanding and assigning risk
The procedure for proper thermal adjusting
Maintaining neutral temperature
The VeRSE


Sign up today. The webcast is September 26, 2012.
It's completely free to attend.
