01/18/02 - BeltPack LRC Orders
KCS announced plans to take delivery this year of 50 BELTPACK®
locomotive remote-control (LRC) units from CANAC Inc.
In addition to supplying the LRC units, CANAC would provide KCS
specialized software, a Web-based training support system, and training
programs for operators and supervisors.
"KCS is eagerly anticipating the effects that BELTPACKS will have
in preventing accidents and injuries," said Ab Rees, KCS senior
vice president-operations, in a prepared statement.
CANAC officials believe KCS’ order would make the Class I the largest
BELTPACK user among U.S. railroads. |
