Big Freight Railroads to Miss Safety Technology Deadline
Big Freight railroads to miss safety technology deadline FILE - In this June 4, 2014 file photo, a Norfolk Southern locomotive moves along the tracks in Norfolk, Va. Three of the biggest freight railroads operating in the U.S. have told telling the government they won’t make a 2018 deadline to start using safety technology intended to prevent accidents like the deadly derailment of an Amtrak train in Philadelphia last May. Norfolk Southern, Canadian National Railway and CSX Transportation and say they won’t be ready until 2020, according to a list provided to The Associated Press by the Federal Railroad Administration. Steve Helber, File AP Photo BY JOAN LOWY, Associated Press WASHINGTON Three of the biggest freight railroads operating in the U.S. have told the government they won't meet a 2018 deadline to start using safety technology intended to prevent accidents like the deadly derailment of an Amtrak train in Philadelphia last May. Canadian National Railway, CSX Transportation and Norfolk Southern say they won't be ready until 2020, according to a list provided to The Associated Press by the Federal Railroad Administration. Four commuter railroads — SunRail in Florida, Metra in Illinois, the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority and Trinity Railway Express in Texas — also say they'll miss the deadline. The technology, called positive train control or PTC, relies on GPS, wireless radio and computers to monitor train positions and automatically slow or stop trains that are in danger of colliding, derailing due to excessive speed or about to enter track where crews are working or that is otherwise off limits. -

Metra’s Monthly Commuter Newsletter May 2015 Metra stands for transit Metra joined its fellow Chicago area transit agen- cies and a bipartisan group of federal lawmakers last month to highlight the need for consistent, long-term federal funding for the nation’s transportation and public transit systems. The Stand Up 4 Transporta- tion event was part of a na- tional initiative sponsored by the American Public Transportation Association. A press confer- ence at Chicago Union Station focused on the Move Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), which expires on May 31, and the Highway Trust Fund, which will start teetering on insolvency this summer. The Metra Chairman Martin Oberman speaks at the Stand Up 4 Transportation event last month at Union Station. Behind region’s transit agencies, like him are (left to right) state Rep.
