	Time Tables and Train Orders (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-12)
		Passenger trains should not be delayed by freight trains, and neither should be delayed by company service trains, such as those carrying wood (fuel) or ballast.
		Trains did not usually actually stop at a stop train order signal, as they would at an interlocking or block signal, but according to their convenience.
		All trains, extra trains included, are expected to move in a single direction, from initial to terminal station, and must never move in the opposite direction (except behind a flagman in an emergency).

	All aboard for training
		While the awareness and operational-level training classes provided by the railroads discuss and demonstrate the techniques of removing a window or opening a door, this class provides students the opportunity to do it for themselves, with the added elements of generated smoke, overturned cars and simulated entrapments.
		This sentiment, echoed by career and volunteer chiefs throughout the Northeast, was one of the major factors in regionalizing, not centralizing, the training program.
		The equipment and layout of the training props simulate the operations and infrastructure of non-electrified territories, because all of the commuter operations south and west of Washington, D.C., as well as all Amtrak operations in this area and the Southeast, are on heavy freight traffic lines.

	Passenger car - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Passenger cars, particularly in America, grew along with them, first getting longer with the addition of a second truck (one at each end), and wider as their suspensions improved.
		High-speed trains are made up of cars from a single manufacturer and usually of a uniform design (although the dining car on the ICE has a dome).
		As passenger car construction improved to the point where dome cars were introduced, some passenger car manufacturers began building double decker passenger train cars for use in areas that are more heavily populated or to carry more passengers over a long distance while using fewer cars (such as Amtrak's Superliner cars).
