Abstract This report summarizes the findings of a study to evaluate the fuel efficiency of rail freight operations relative to competing truckload service. The objective of the study was to identify the circumstances in which rail freight service offers a fuel efficiency advantage over alternative truckload options, and to estimate the fuel savings associated with using rail service.

  • Chapter 14 Yards and Terminals1
    CHAPTER 14 YARDS AND TERMINALS1 FOREWORD This chapter deals with the engineering and economic problems of location, design, construction and operation of yards and terminals used in railway service. Such problems are substantially the same whether railway's ownership and use is to be individual or joint. The location and arrangement of the yard or terminal as a whole should permit the most convenient and economical access to it of the tributary lines of railway, and the location, design and capacity of the several facilities or components within said yard or terminal should be such as to handle the tributary traffic expeditiously and economically and to serve the public and customer conveniently. In the design of new yards and terminals, the retention of existing railway routes and facilities may seem desirable from the standpoint of initial expenditure or first cost, but may prove to be extravagant from the standpoint of operating costs and efficiency. A true economic balance should be achieved, keeping in mind possible future trends and changes in traffic criteria, as to volume, intensity, direction and character. Although this chapter contemplates the establishment of entirely new facilities, the recommendations therein will apply equally in the rearrangement, modernization, enlargement or consolidation of existing yards and terminals and related facilities. Part 1, Generalities through Part 4, Specialized Freight Terminals include specific and detailed recommendations relative to the handling of freight, regardless of the type of commodity or merchandise, at the originating, intermediate and destination points. Part 5, Locomotive Facilities and Part 6, Passenger Facilities relate to locomotive and passenger facilities, respectively.

  • Product Guide
    2019 PRODUCT GUIDE *Layout and photo by Jay Oberg Experience & Quality You Can Depend On Dear Model Railroader: Welcome to our 2019 Micro-Trains Product Guide. Located in Southern Oregon, Micro-Trains manufactures premier N and Z scale rolling stock, our popular Magne-Matic® Coupler Welcome System, and a variety of model railroad tools and accessories, in our 33,000 sq ft factory. And we’ve been at it for over 46 years! During 2019, we have an array of all new model railroad products, that we’ll be designing, tooling and producing for you, our valued customer. This year our new tooling will include our 11th Heavyweight Passenger car, in this series; the Single Window Coach Car. And given the popularity of our N scale DODX 68’ flat car with military loads; we’ll be producing our own injection-molded multipurpose, light 4-wheel drive military utility vehicle known as the Humvee, as the next military load for our DODX flat cars. Already underway, Micro-Trains has been enhancing our ever-popular 40’ and 50’ box cars by lowering the car’s underframe to the rail, and offering “cored through”, injection-molded roof walks, similar to what we’ve already done with our 50’ box car roof walks. In addition, we’re modifying the cars to body-mount couplers, and where appropriate adding etched metal brake platforms to the car ends. We’re essentially making the best N scale rolling stock, even better! In addition to tooling up all new rail cars and accessories, Micro-Trains continues the tradition of issuing prototypical railcar series during 2019; we’ll be introducing our “Farm- to-Table” Reefer series in both N and Z scale.

Its western terminus, Shelby, connects to the Marias Pass route DLC from Dovetail Games, thus completing the entire Hi-Line Subdivision from Whitefish to Havre in Train Simulator. History The Hi-Line subdivision is part of BNSF's busy northern transcontinental mainline (Chicago-Seattle). It was originally built in the late 19th century by James J. Hill's Great Northern Railway (GN) and is the northernmost of the transcontinental railroads in the United States. The building of the Great Northern mainline brought a settlement boom to the plains of Montana, many of the small towns and villages along what is today called the Hi-Line subdivision where established during or shortly after the construction of the railroad. Havre and Shelby, the two end points of this route, were important junction points on the Great Northern. At Havre, a secondary mainline, routed through the beautiful upper Missouri canyon, branched off towards Great Falls, MT, an important traffic hub in the GN network. That line no longer exists today, only two short branch lines from Havre to Big Sandy in the north and from Great Falls to Fort Benton in the south remain in (very infrequent) service.
