The arms are "Or a fess vert charged with an isosceles triangle or formed of concave railroads pointing sinister in chief a maple leaf and a fleur-de-lis in base three gear wheels all gules."

The red maple leaf locates the municipality in Canada and in Beauce. The red fleur-delis locates it in Quebec.
The green stripe recalls the Appalachian plateau.
Or symbolizes wealth brought to Tring-Jonction by the railway and industry.
The railroad triangle highlights Tring-Jonction' birth and name, as a meeting place, and its citizens' characteristic hospitality.
The three red gear wheels symbolize industry, warmth, solidarity, and mutual aid, which are basic attributes of the inhabitants.
