There is not a single occupation or interest which it has not radically affected. Agriculture, manufacturers, commerce, city and country life, banking, finance, law, and even government itself, have all felt its influence.—Edward Howard, “A Railroad Study” in Harper’s New Monthly Magazine, Sept. 1877 Figure 1 | Alton was considered the most promising river access point for railroads in the 1850s and led to the estab- All Eyes on the Mississippi lishment of the Chicago & Alton Railroad.

  • Guide to Railroad History Materials in Manuscript and Visual Collections at the Indiana Historical Society
    Guide to Railroad History Materials in Manuscript and Visual Collections at the Indiana Historical Society 4 August 2004 This guide describes manuscript and visual collections in the William Henry Smith Memorial Library of the Indiana Historical Society (IHS) that document the history of railroads and interurbans. IHS has collected transportation history for many years, and with the establishment of the Midwest Railroad Research Center (MRRC) in 1997, it confirmed and intensified its collecting interests in documenting Indiana (and Midwestern) railroads and electric interurbans. The MRRC emphasizes in particular the history of electric interurban railways, because of the central role Indiana played in that industry. In addition to collecting material, the MRRC also sponsors lectures, seminars, conferences, publications, and exhibitions dealing with railroad history. For the MRRC, the Indiana Historical Society is seeking donations of railroad company records; the personal and professional papers of those who worked for railroads; runs of railroad periodicals, particularly those focusing on the Midwest; records of railroad unions; original photographs; records and publications of railroad clubs and historical societies; railroad guides and directories covering the Midwest; books on Midwestern railroads; and materials on interurbans, street railways, electric railways, and trolleys on tracks. For each manuscript or visual collection described below the following information is provided: Collection title and date span. Collection number: M (for collections one document case or greater), P for collections made primarily of photographs, graphics, or other visual material, SC (for collections less than one document case), BV (for bound volumes such as scrapbooks and ledgers), OM (for oversize manuscripts less than one box), OMB (for oversize manuscripts one box or greater), F (microfilm), CT (cassette tapes).

    ASSOCIATION OF AMERICAN RAILROADS July 26, 2020 Mr. James A. Mullen Acting Administrator Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration U.S. Department of Transportation 1200 New Jersey Avenue, S.E. Washington, D.C. 20590-0001 RE: Exemption Request from 49 C.F.R. § 395.3 - Railroad Maintenance-of-Way Drivers Responding to Unplanned Events Dear Acting Administrator Mullen: The Association of American Railroads (AAR) and American Short Line and Regional Railroad Association (ASLRRA) (the Associations), on behalf of themselves and their member railroads, request that the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) grant an exemption under 49 C.F.R. § 381.300 et seq. from the FMCSA hours of service (HOS) operation restrictions at 49 C.F.R. § 395.3(a)-(b).1 The railroads request that this exemption be granted for five years as prescribed in § 381.300(b). This request covers approximately 20,000 individual drivers and 11,000 commercial motor vehicles (CMVs). As background, the Associations submitted a similar exemption request from § 395.3 requirements on October 11, 2018, at Docket No. FMCSA-2018-0367, requesting relief from FMCSA HOS restrictions for railroad Maintenance-of-way (MOW) employees responding to unplanned events (Attachment 1). On February 21, 2020, the Associations withdrew that pending request (Attachment 2). This revised exemption request addresses the same topic as the Associations’ October 2018 petition, but requests a narrower exemption which parallels that recently granted by FMCSA to other railroad industry groups at Docket No. FMCSA-2019- 1 AAR is a trade association whose membership includes freight railroads that operate 83% of the line-haul mileage, employ 95% of the workers, and account for 97% of the freight revenues of all railroads in the United States; and passenger railroads that operate intercity passenger trains and provide commuter rail service.
