  • Regional Transit Projects Project Sheet | Portal Bridge Replacement (Portal North)
    Appendix B Capital Plan Project Sheets Regional Transit Projects Project Sheet | Portal Bridge Replacement (Portal North) Description The existing Portal Bridge is a ±960-foot long structure which carries the Existing: Portal Bridge Northeast Corridor (NEC) over the Hackensack River between Newark Penn Station and Secaucus Junction. The existing movable, swing span bridge was constructed in 1910, is 110-years old, and has exceeded its originally intended service life. Due to its age and frequency of use, the movable bridge is costly and difficult to maintain and experiences frequent breakdowns. The two-track bridge creates a bottleneck between the four-track territories to the east and west and requires train speed reductions of 30% which contributes to a decrease in rail service reliability. Given its low vertical clearance to the river, frequent bridge openings are required to accommodate marine traffic. Also, mechanical component malfunctions often cause the bridge to be open for extended periods of time, resulting in frequent, lengthy delays of rail service on the NEC. Additionally, the existing bridge does not have enough capacity to accommodate anticipated future demand. If funded, this project would replace the existing bridge with a higher, more reliable, double track fixed bridge on a new alignment to the north of the existing bridge. The increased vertical profile would eliminate interruptions to rail service due to required bridge openings. The new north bridge would also eliminate speed restrictions, thereby improving Proposed: New Bridge rail operation and capacity across the span. A second, two-track southern bridge, Portal South, is contemplated separately as part of the overall Gateway Program, which when complete would substantially increase operational capacity along this critical length of the NEC.

Lancaster Dispatcher Page 2 December 2017 Holiday Travel THE MUTUAL MAGAZINE - FEBRUARY, 1941 With holiday travel at the highest peak in many years, officers of the Pennsylvania Railroad estimated that during the period from December 13 to December 24, inclusive, the movement over all divisions of the system totalled approximately 2,500,000 passengers, an increase of nearly 20% above 1939. Of this number 2,000,000 rode in coaches and 500,000 in Pullman sleeping and parlor cars. The period covered embraced practically all of the Christmas trek “back home” for family reunions and the heavy travel to Florida, as well as soldiers visiting their people on furloughs from the various encampments throughout the country. In handling this Christmas traffic, 1,314 extra sections and special trains were operated, in addition to many extra cars on regularly scheduled trains. The heaviest day was December 20, when 202 extra sections were required. There were 1,621 extra runs of Pullman cars, including 1,230 sleeping and 391 parlor car movements. To accommodate the tremendous demand for reservations to Florida, 12 extra coach trains, handling more than 4,000 passengers, were operated on PRR WARTIME HOLIDAY POSTER - 1942 four days from New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore, via the Washington COLLECTION OF THE EDITOR gateway, to leading Florida points. These were in addition to the regular daily luxury coach trains - the Silver Meteor, the Champion and the Vacationer - as well as extremely heavy Pullman travel.

  • Transit Appendix
    TRANSIT APPENDIX Contains: Future NJ TRANSIT Needs The Port Authority’s Interstate Transportation Role Transit Appendix 1 DRAFT Plan 2045: Connecting North Jersey Draft: Future Transit Needs in the NJTPA Region The following analysis of future transit needs was prepared by NJ TRANSIT to inform the development of Plan 2045: Connecting North Jersey. It will guide the NJTPA’s planning and capital programming activities over the next three decades. The foremost concern in projecting future funding needs is predicated on a fully funded state of good repair program for NJ TRANSIT’s existing public transit system. Addressing ongoing and sustained needs related to rehabilitation and basic systems improvements must also constantly progress in order to maintain a statewide public transit network that is responsive to customer needs. With the need to address a focus on state of good repair as a prerequisite, proposed future expansion projects need to be assessed through a series of physical/operational feasibility, environmental, economic and ridership, fiscal and financial analyses. Ongoing operating and maintenance costs associated with proposed projects are a critical component of analysis, as they have a direct impact on NJ TRANSIT’s annual operating budget. Among the future investment needs being considered for longer term capital funding are the following: Capacity Improvements and Transit Service Expansions Additional Trans-Hudson Public Transit Capacity Various studies are underway to examine ways to increase trans-Hudson bus, rail and ferry capacities. Among the major efforts is the Gateway Program, led by Amtrak, focused on preserving and increasing rail capacity between New Jersey and Manhattan. On a broader level, the Federal Railroad Administration is managing the NEC FUTURE effort examining the future needs of the entire Northeast Corridor from Washington, D.C.

  • How Acela Trainsets Are Made: Inside the Alstom Facility Written by William C
    VOLUME 50 NUMBER 9 DISTRICT 2 - CHAPTER WEBSITE: WWW.NRHS1.ORG SEPTEMBER 2019 HOW ACELA TRAINSETS ARE MADE: INSIDE THE ALSTOM FACILITY WRITTEN BY WILLIAM C. VANTUONO, EDITOR-IN-CHIEF, RAILWAY AGE RAILWAY AGE AT THE ALSTOM MANUFACTURING FACILITY, HORNELL, N.Y., JUNE 12, 2019: Alstom Transportation is building the next generation of high-speed trainsets for Amtrak‘s Northeast Corridor Acela Express service. The new equipment is scheduled to enter service sometime in 2021 between Washington, D.C. and Boston. Amtrak says that this equipment will provide a smoother and more comfortable ride than what it is replacing. Each trainset will have 378 seats, with such amenities as personal power outlets, USB ports and adjustable reading lights. There will be an onboard information system providing real-time information such as location, train speed and conductor announcements. Part of the full ADA accessibility will be spacious restrooms with a 60-inch-diameter turning radius to accommodate people in wheelchairs. Amtrak will be implementing an advance seat reservation system. Food service is described as “contemporary, offering easy access and greater selection.” Twenty-eight of these trainsets are under construction, and Amtrak has created a microsite with photos and facts about the new trainsets. They are much lighter than the current equipment, with 17-metric-ton axle loads. The power cars are constructed of carbon steel; the coaches of aluminum. The trainsets meet FRA Tier III Passenger Equipment Safety Standards; Standards for Alternative Compliance and High-Speed Trainsets. Here is a close look at this equipment under construction.
