From the report:

Contributing to the accident was the Canadian National Railway’s use of after-arrival track authorities in nonsignaled territory, a procedure that is vulnerable to human error and lacks inherent safety redundancies ensuring consistent safe operation.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Short of returning to timetable and train order authority, or requiring all track to be signaled, what alternatives are there?
