Without brake pipe pressure maintaining, leakage will cause the brake pipe pressure to continually decrease after the brakes have been applied. This can cause an undesired reduction in brake pipe pressure resulting in an increase in braking effort on the cars, leading to a potential stall condition of the train on the descending grade. 1, record 1, English, - brake%20pipe%20pressure

This program was created to assist those communities without broadband access. Most often, improved access is necessary in First Nations, northern and rural communities in order to provide services in the areas of health and education, as well as to augment economic opportunities. The Broadband Pilot Program conducted two rounds of business plan development funding, followed by two rounds of implementation funding, each with a competitive call by Industry Canada for the submission of applications from interested communities throughout Canada. 2, record 2, English, - Broadband%20for%20Rural%20and%20Northern%20Development%20Pilot%20Program

Ce programme été créé pour aider les collectivités qui n'ont pas accès aux services à large bande.

Le Programme pilote des services à large bande a effectué deux séries de financement de l'élaboration d'un plan d'affaires, suivies de deux séries de financement de la mise en œuvre.
