Virtual classroom
CP's Augmented Reality technology helps CP Hazardous Materials & Emergency Response Officers coach first responders how to safely respond to train derailments with hazardous goods from the safety of indoors.
Using 3-D modelling, CP can take their virtual classroom anywhere to train firefighters and other first responders on safely responding to rail incidents.

CP has recently developed Virtual Reality (VR) technology along with web application based training to help CP Hazardous Materials & Emergency Response Officers teach first responders how to safely respond to train derailments involving dangerous goods from the safety of a classroom. Training and exercises help to facilitate safe and efficient operations during an emergency response. CP has developed four VR locations, with five different situations in each location, which can be experienced by first responders.
Training manuals have been developed for each location and situation, which provide specific information associated with each scenario. Items included in the manuals provide real world examples of what first responders would be provided by CP when responding to active derailments. Within the training manuals there are mock train consists, product waybills, air-monitoring plans and other support documents relevant to the scenario.
CP is committed to continued training of first responders, and plan to continue developing similar VR scenarios to provide excellent training opportunities.
CP would like to thank our industrial partners GHD and Scrubby Code for their help with different aspects of our VR and APP development.
All of the scenarios have been optimized for most platforms, including PC, MacOS, iOS and android. Use the following QR codes to download from your device.
