Railway Operation Compensation: A Resource Tool

This is a guide for people who have land, buildings, and other structures and works right beside a railway line. There are railway safety laws that may affect people in this situation. The guide explains that:

  • people located right beside a railway line may have to let the railway onto their property for safety activities (for example, to clear brush that is blocking railway sight lines or in an emergency);
  • the law may limit what these people can and can't do on their property, if the activity (for example, a construction project) would affect railway safety; and
  • people who suffer losses because of these safety requirements may be owed compensation.

Selecting an Arbitrator: A Resource Tool

This is a guide for shippers and railways who are involved in Final Offer Arbitration (FOA). It explains:

  • the process for finding an arbitrator the shipper and the railway agree on, which asks each side to identify their preferred arbitrators from the roster established by the CTA;
  • how the CTA selects an arbitrator if the shipper and railway do not agree;
  • how and when the shipper or railway can challenge the appointment of the arbitrator;
  • what happens if an arbitrator leaves and must be replaced, including who pays for the arbitrator's fees up to that point.
