Participants benefiting the most from this course are those with limited exposure to the
railway industry, or railroaders with highly specialized positions. For example, a structural
engineer well versed in highway bridge design but with some exposure to railway bridge
design would gain valuable knowledge about track, signals, and railway operations
typically unfamiliar to those outside the industry.
The benefits from this seminar include, contact with other railroad professionals through our low student/instructor ratio. Participants will gain a greater appreciation for the technical and not-so-technical aspects of railroad engineering and operations.
The registration fee includes a workbook containing printed copies of the presentation, and a digital copy of the AREMA Practical Guide to Railway Engineering ($125 value).

This technical seminar is best designed for individuals that are involved for the development
of new or expansion of existing intermodal terminals. Railroad personnel, consultants, and
anyone else responsible for intermodal projects with a minimum of 3 years experience in the
railroad industry will benefit from this seminar. Participants should have basic knowledge of
railroads and intermodal (COFC/TOFC) terminology. The seminar will begin with a site tour to a
local intermodal facility – attendees must bring their own PPE to join the tour. This class can
be taken consecutively with the Intermodal Design Planning Seminar, which is held on
September 19-20, 2012.
Register for both Intermodal Design Planning and Intermodal Design Engineering Seminars and receive a reduced fee! Please see the flip side of this document for pricing information.

Participants will learn design approaches of typical rail service, capacity and routing,
and environmental interface problems with a sharp focus on development and evaluation
of horizontal and vertical alignment geometric design. A case study approach provides
incrementally higher levels of difficulties with multiple constraints.
This seminar is best for individuals that are responsible for track design production work, with 1-3 years of railroad or track design experience, or more experienced railroaders and engineers moving into track design responsibilities. Participants should have a rudimentary knowledge of railroads and railroad terminology. The Introduction to Practical Railway Engineering seminar or equivalent is an ideal precursor to this class.
