Following the approval of the PRGT in June, dozens of track circuits throughout BC have been shorted, disconnected, or otherwise tampered with.
The vast majority of track circuits operate on direct current (DC) and are relatively easy to induce a fail state. The quickest and most discreet method has proven to be the simple snipping of the cable bonding track blocks, requiring little more than a good pair of cutters. Alternatively, a 4 AWG copper wire (commonly found connecting residential main service panels) can be securely fastened to the rail head. And, of course, there is always the option of disabling the power supply. This may include damaging the grounding, which is more time-consuming but notably harder to detect and locate.
Technical details and diagrams of track circuits, and specifically how to compromise them, are readily available in engineering textbooks at your local library, past communiqués, and even neatly presented in certain PDFs hosted on the Government of Canada’s website.

Alfredo Cospito es un anarquista que cree, como lxs anarquistas, que no hay justicia que se deba reconocer ley en este mundo de condenadxs, plagado por la lógica de la dominación. Dispararle en la pierna a Adinolfi, uno de los principales ejecutivos nucleares de Italia, no solo inspiro bellos canticos anárquicos en Génova, que hasta el día de hoy le recuerdan al Estado que Alfredo es mucho más de lo que ellxs temen, de lo que Carlo Nordio busca eliminar: C’era Adinolfi accasciato là, Il nucleare non passerà. Con su traslado al régimen 41-bis en 2022 pretenden que sea su último respiro, porque Scripta Manent no bastó.
