Import Tips

• Classify the air reservoir tank as a part of the brake system, not as a general pressure vessel, which would fall under Chapter 73

• The CBSA may require technical specifications to confirm it is solely for railway use

• Ensure the tank is not considered a part of general use, as that would exclude it from Chapter 86
