  • AAPRCO & RPCA Members Meet to Develop Their Response to New Amtrak Regulations
    Volume 1 Issue 6 May 2018 AAPRCO & RPCA members meet to develop their response to new Amtrak regulations Members of the two associations met in New Orleans last week to further develop their response to new regulations being imposed by Amtrak on their members’ private railroad car businesses. Several of those vintage railroad cars were parked in New Orleans Union Station. “Most of our owners are small business people, and these new policies are forcing many of them to close or curtail their operations,” said AAPRCO President Bob Donnelley. “It is also negatively impacting their employees, suppliers and the hospitality industry that works with these private rail car trips,” added RPCA President Roger Fuehring. Currently about 200 private cars travel hundreds of thousands of miles behind regularly scheduled Amtrak trains each year. Along with special train excursions, they add nearly $10 million dollars in high margin revenue annually to the bottom line of the tax-payer subsidized passenger railroad. A 12% rate increase was imposed May 1 with just two weeks’ notice . This followed a longstanding pattern of increases taking effect annually on October 1. Cost data is being developed by economic expert Bruce Horowitz for presentation to Amtrak as are legal options. Members of both organizations are being asked to continue writing their Congress members and engaging the press. Social media is being activated and you are encouraged to follow AAPRCO on Facebook and twitter. Successes on the legislative front include this Congressional letter sent to Amtrak's president and the Board and inclusion of private car and charter train issues in recent hearings.

    INVESTING IN Program Highlights | 2016 1 INVESTING IN The SIS n 2003, the Florida Legislature and Governor established the Strategic Intermodal System (SIS) to enhance Florida’s transportation mobility and Ieconomic competitiveness. The SIS is a statewide network of high-priority transportation facilities, including the State’s largest and most significant WHAT IS THE airports, spaceports, deep-water seaports, freight rail terminals, passenger rail and intercity bus terminals, rail corridors, waterways and highways. These facilities represent the state’s primary means for moving people and freight between Florida’s diverse regions, as well as between Florida and other states STRATEGIC and nations. SIS Facilities are designated through the use of objective criteria and thresholds based on quantitative measures of transportation and economic activity. These facilities meet high levels of people and goods movement and INTERMODAL generally support major flows of interregional, interstate, and international travel and commerce. Facilities that do not yet meet the established criteria and thresholds for SIS designation, but are expected to in the future are referred to as Emerging SIS. These facilities experience lower levels of people SYSTEM? and goods movement but demonstrate strong potential for future growth and development. The designated SIS and Emerging SIS includes 17 commercial service airports, two spaceports, 12 public seaports, over 2,300 miles of rail corridors, over 2,200 miles of waterways, 34 passenger terminals, seven rail freight terminals, and over 4,600 miles of highways. These hubs, corridors and connectors are the fundamental structure which satisfies the transportation needs of travelers and visitors, supports the movement of freight, and provides transportation links to external markets.

  • The Florida Rail System Plan: Investment Element
    Draft Final Report The Florida Rail System Plan: Investment Element prepared for the Florida Department of Transportation prepared by Cambridge Systematics, Inc. With support from Planning Innovations, Inc Quandel Consultants September 2010 Letter from the Secretary Citizens of Florida: I am pleased to submit to you the Investment Element of the 2010 Florida Rail System Plan. Unlike in past years, where the Florida Rail System Plan was more descriptive of the separate freight and passenger rail systems, this plan is more visionary, strategic, and policy-driven. The plan was guided by a broad base of stakeholders, including the Rail Stakeholder Advisory Committee, members of the public and private sectors, modes of transportation, economic development and environmental interests, and citizen representatives. The Committee and others worked throughout the summer and fall of 2009 to develop an inventory of Florida’s rail system needs and recommend priority investments that support the strategic goals, objectives, and policies of the Florida Rail System Plan. The Florida Rail System Plan is comprised of a Policy Element and this document, the Investment Element. The Policy Element provides a broad policy framework for the investment of limited state resources in Florida’s rail system. The Investment Element builds upon the framework of the Policy Element by identifying the needs of Florida’s rail system, establishing priorities for the investment of state funds, and setting forth future action steps necessary to implement the plan. Florida in the year 2030 will be shaped by the actions, decisions, and policy choices made today. The challenges of continuing population growth, a rapidly diversifying economy, improving our infrastructure, and preserving our exceptional natural environment, will require a creative and visionary approach to address the mobility needs of Florida’s citi- zens, businesses, and visitors while fostering smarter and more sustainable patterns of growth for our future.
