Freight Rail Projects Pennnsylvania Intercity Passenger and Freight Rail Plan Appendix 9 Freight Rail Projects SEPTEMBER 2010 Appendix 9 Freight Rail Projects In an effort to identify the capital needs of the freight industry in Pennsylvania, PennDOT conducted an extensive outreach initiative, in coordination with the Keystone State Railroad Association, to secure input from all 65 operating railroads within the Pennsylvania freight rail network. This outreach effort included solicitation for planned capital projects at rail-related conferences and e-mail correspondence, as well as follow-up telephone calls during July and August 2010. The project submissions provided in the following table characterize the full extent of known planned capital investments for railroad infrastructure across Pennsylvania as of August 2010. The table is organized alphabetically by railroad and lists projects by implementation timeframe (near-term: 1-3 years, mid-term: 3-5, and long-term: more than 5 years). Brief project descriptions, location, and estimated costs are also included. Project categories were contributed by the Keystone State Railroad Association. PennDOT will also evaluate all submitted projects against the goals and objectives outlined in the Pennsylvania Intercity Passenger and Freight Rail Plan to assist the Department in making future funding decisions. PennDOT’s grant application process will be used to maintain a current list of projects.

  • Planning Context
    1. Preface This plan serves as the update to Chapter 12, the transportation plan element, of the 2003 Cumberland County Comprehensive Plan. Background information and specific statistics on the modes of transportation in the county can be found in Chapter 11 of the comprehensive plan and in the Harrisburg Area Transportation Study (HATS) Long Range Transportation Plan1. 2. Introduction Cumberland County is home to a variety of transportation resources ranging from interstate highways to sidewalks in local neighborhoods. The transportation infrastructure found in the county supports the national, state and local economies and the high quality of life in our communities, alike. The value of our transportation system warrants the county’s involvement in its planning, design, construction and maintenance. Cumberland County’s transportation planning authority emanates from Article III of the Pennsylvania Municipalities Planning Code (MPC), Act 247 of 1968. The MPC requires county comprehensive plans to include a plan for the “movement of people and goods” that includes all modes of transportation. Under this planning authorization the county’s actual role in planning and implementing improvements for all modes of transportation must be carefully managed. This plan identifies the salient transportation issues and needs facing the county and recommends a series of county-based strategies and action steps aimed at addressing the identified needs and issues. 3. Highways and Bridges Issues and Needs Cumberland County has an extensively developed highway network that provides for local, regional, and national transportation. All roads in the county are owned and maintained by municipalities, the state, or the federal government. The rich hydrologic resources of Cumberland County are spanned by 438 bridges that are over 20’ in length2.

  • Telltales New1.Pub
    August Telltales 2010 Newsletter of the Boulder Model Railroad Club Blairsville, PA (shown above) lies between Pittsburgh and Johnstown on the Conemaugh Division of the Pennsylvania Railroad. BMRC member Gary Rauch plans to make Blairsville a focus on his layout and will explain to us this month why it offers so many unique modeling opportunities (more info on page 5). The contest topic is “Locomotive Servicing,” which should result in a fine display of coaling towers, roundhouses, sand facilities and more, so join us for an evening of learning and fun on Thursday, August 12, 7:15 PM (or 6:00 PM for dinner beforehand, as so many members are doing) at the American Legion Hall, 1150 Pine in Louisville . Don’t miss it! EDITORIAL Time is running out! I volunteered to open my home for a layout tour on September 25th and, like others who have stepped forward at various times during the year, I fear I will not complete everything on my “To Do” list before the fateful day. And it doesn’t help that we are in the middle of summer, which means yard work, some traveling, and other stuff that always gets saved up for when the weather will be nice. I’ve attended many layout tours over my time in the BMRC, and I’ve set a rule for myself that I won’t display my layout on another tour unless I have made enough significant changes in it (on it? with it?) to justify asking visitors to come and look at it again. Which explains why I am nervous about getting everything on my list checked off.
