Transfer and Discontinuance of Railway Line Operations and Railway Track Determinations: A Resource Tool

This is a guide for railways that want to transfer or discontinue lines. It is also for governments in Canada (including urban transit authorities) and others who may want to acquire those lines. The guide sets out the steps a railway must follow before a transfer or discontinuance and how the CTA can help with related disputes. It covers:

  • how the railway must advertise the line for sale;
  • the process for offering a line that does not sell to different levels of government (for any purpose they want);
  • how to ask the CTA to determine the line's net salvage value or order the discontinuance, if those involved cannot agree; and
  • how to ask the CTA for help with other disputes. These include whether the track is eligible for discontinuance and whether the railway is negotiating in good faith and following the steps.

  • how the CTA distributes the costs when those involved cannot agree; and
  • issues the CTA considers before deciding how to distribute the costs.
