Freight and Passenger Rail

Background Brief on … Freight and Passenger Rail Prepared by: Janet Adkins November 2006 History Oregon’s first north-south rail line required two decades to complete, beginning at Portland in 1869.

Construction • History continued over the Siskiyou Mountains into California, and by 1887 the continuous route between San Francisco and Portland was completed. Meanwhile, in 1883, completion of a railroad along the • Today’s Freight System Columbia River gave Oregon a transcontinental connection across the northern tier states. Late in 1884 completion of a line from Umatilla over the Blue Mountains established a second transcontinental link • Funding Improvements through Idaho, Wyoming, and Nebraska. Track mileage in Oregon peaked in the 1930’s at nearly 4,350 miles. More than 90 percent of the track in 1927 featured both passenger and freight service, • Today’s Passenger including 11 daily passenger trains between Portland and Eugene.

With our seventeen state partners we provide service to forty-six states, linking urban and rural areas from coast to coast. But there is so much more to be done, from providing transportation choices in more locations to reducing highway and air traffic congestion to addressing longstanding economic and social inequities. This report describes how. To achieve this vision, Amtrak proposes that the federal government invest $75 billion over fifteen years to develop and expand intercity passenger rail corridors around the nation in collaboration with our existing and new state partners. Key elements of Amtrak’s proposal include: Sustained and Flexible Funding Paths Federal Investment Leadership Amtrak proposes a combination of funding mechanisms, including Following the successful models used to develop the nation’s direct federal funding to Amtrak for corridor development and Interstate Highway System and our aviation infrastructure, Amtrak operation, and discretionary grants available to states, Amtrak proposes significant Federal financial leadership to drive the and others for corridor development.
