  • History of the Pere Marquette Railway

    History of the Pere Marquette Railway

    History of the Pere Marquette Railway Local History at the St. Thomas Public Library 1900: The Pere Marquette Railroad (PM) is formed by merging three small railroads in the United States: Chicago & West Michigan; Flint & Pere Marquette; and the Detroit, Grand Rapids & Western Railways. The PM is named after Père Jacques Marquette, the French Jesuit missionary who founded Michigan’s first European settlement, Sault St. Marie. 1901: Car ferry Pere Marquette 17 is placed in Lake Michigan service. The PM used car ferries on Lake Michigan to avoid the terminal and interchange delays in the area. Later, they were used on Lake Erie, the Detroit River, and in Port Huron. Car Ferry Pere Marquette 17 1902: Car ferry (first) Pere Marquette 18 is placed into Lake Michigan service. January 1903: PM acquires the Lake Erie & Detroit River Railway (LE&DRR), with main lines running from Walkerville, Windsor to St. Thomas, Ontario, as well as from Sarnia to Chatham and Erieau. This begins the Pere Marquette’s presence in Canada. 1904: The Pere Marquette secures running rights from Buffalo, New York and Niagara Falls, New York over the Canadian Southern railway lines to reach St. Thomas, where the PM’s main Canadian facilities will be located. 1905: Shop facilities are constructed in St. Thomas. December 1905: The first receivership begins, meaning that the company is controlled by others in order to make the best decision based on its finances, whether that is stabilizing or selling the company. The Pere Marquette has struggled financially for much of its operating life, and will continue to do so.

    Bilevel Rail Car - Wikipedia

    Bilevel rail car - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilevel_rail_car Bilevel rail car The bilevel car (American English) or double-decker train (British English and Canadian English) is a type of rail car that has two levels of passenger accommodation, as opposed to one, increasing passenger capacity (in example cases of up to 57% per car).[1] In some countries such vehicles are commonly referred to as dostos, derived from the German Doppelstockwagen. The use of double-decker carriages, where feasible, can resolve capacity problems on a railway, avoiding other options which have an associated infrastructure cost such as longer trains (which require longer station Double-deck rail car operated by Agence métropolitaine de transport platforms), more trains per hour (which the signalling or safety in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The requirements may not allow) or adding extra tracks besides the existing Lucien-L'Allier station is in the back line. ground. Bilevel trains are claimed to be more energy efficient,[2] and may have a lower operating cost per passenger.[3] A bilevel car may carry about twice as many as a normal car, without requiring double the weight to pull or material to build. However, a bilevel train may take longer to exchange passengers at each station, since more people will enter and exit from each car. The increased dwell time makes them most popular on long-distance routes which make fewer stops (and may be popular with passengers for offering a better view).[1] Bilevel cars may not be usable in countries or older railway systems with Bombardier double-deck rail cars in low loading gauges.

  • Missouri Freight Plan

    Missouri Freight Plan

    Chapter 3 – Missouri Freight System Chapter 3 – Missouri Freight System KEY POINTS One of the key products of this Missouri State Freight Plan is a defined Missouri freight network. This is the first time Missouri has had a defined freight network. That is important for several reasons, chief among those: a proposed improvement project must be located on or adjacent to the defined freight network to be considered in the freight prioritization process. The top 100 freight generators in Missouri were identified based on truck activity. This information helped support the identification of the freight network and shaped the prioritization process. Freight and commodity flows underscore the role Missouri plays as a bridge state for the nation, as most freight travels through our state instead of starting or ending here. Introduction Missouri is at the freight crossroads of America. As the geographic and demographic center of population for the United States, Missouri is well positioned as the country’s freight nexus. Missouri’s freight system is a network of highway, rail, air, water, pipeline, intermodal facilities, and freight generators that together move goods and commodities. The freight system is how Missouri products like soybeans and aviation parts are transported around the world. An understanding of the key features of the Missouri Freight Network is integral to understanding the strategies and future goals outlined in this Missouri State Freight Plan. The freight system offers a range of service options. The best freight service for a particular shipment depends on the shipment weight, shipment value, the origin and destination, when the product is needed, security and safety, transportation costs, and customer needs.
