This briefing was in response to a May 30, 1984, request from interested members of Congress that we evaluate the methodologies Amtrak used to analyze the market potential for reinstating passenger rail service through Oklahoma. As we agreed Ft the time of the briefing, this report provides a written summary of our result;. Our work assessed whether the revenue and cost projection models and supporting data bases that Amtrak used for the Oklahoma route analyses reasonably represented actual market conditions and costs for the proposed Amtrak routes. On the basis of our review of the models and data bases, we also evaluated the supportability of Amtrak's conclusions regarding the financial and ridership Qerformance of the seven Oklahoma route options. This report is based largely on information obtained from Amtrak and on interviews with Amtrak officials directly responsi- ble for the development and operation of the revenue and cost orojection systems and data bases we evaluated. Although there were some problems with the documentation of the revenue model and its data bases that precluded us from fully applying appropriate model evaluation methods, the information did allow us to provide iqnificant observations regarding Amtrak's current methodologies or estimating revenues on proposed passenger service routes.

  • Dole Disappointed by Amtrak Decision on Lone Star
    This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu News from Senator BOB DOLE (R - Kansas) 2213 Dirksen Building, Washington, D.C. 20510 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: CONTACT: BOB WAITE WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 29, 1979 (202) 224-8953 DOLE DISAPPOINTED BY AMTRAK DECISION ON LONE STAR WASHINGTON-- Senator Bob Dole (R.-Kansas) today expressed disappointment that the Amtrak Board of Directors decided to cancel the Lone Star passenger route through Kansas. "I am particularly concerned that Amtrak did not even consider the recent increase in ridership figures in making this decision," said Dole. "They placed undue emphasis on the fact that the Lone Star duplicates other Amtrak lines from Chicago to Ne wton. That is little consolation for riders travelling south from Newton to Houston who have been fighting for space on standing-room-only trains for we e ks." Dole and Senator Nancy Kassebau m led an unsuccessful effort on the Senate floor to forestall the cancellation of the Lone Star last month; The Kansas senators had asked for a one-year moratorium. Today Senator Dole expressed hope that his "rail bank" provision, which he succeeded in attaching to the Senate Amtrak bill this year, would leave open the option for reinstating service in the future. The "rail bank" provision ensures that discontinued track is maintained at present levels, if Amtrak rules that service might be reinstated in the future. 11 I w o u 1 d hope that Amt r a k w i 1 1 a t 1 ea s t 1 eave that opt i on open and will take advantage of this provision," said Dole.

  • Funeral Train Consist
    POWER CARS 207, 208 AND 2066 Power Cars – Stabled at Council Bluffs American Car & Foundry built car Nos. 207 and 208 in 1949 as boiler/baggage/dormitory car Nos. 6004 and 6006. They later were rebuilt as steam generator dormitory car Nos. 303 and 304, and renumbered to Nos. 207 and 208 in 1987. Power car 2066 was built as postal storage car No. 5816. Steam locomotives had supplied passenger cars with the steam needed for heat and hot water, but after diesel locomotives were phased in, steam generators were required. They were placed in baggage cars at the front of trains. Locomotive auxiliary generators provided 32-volts of electrical power for the passenger cars that could be “stored” for short periods of time in batteries underneath each car. As Union Pacific’s passenger equipment was modernized and the need for electric power grew, steam generator cars were ENGINE/GENERATOR CONTROL WALK-IN COMMISARY WALK-IN rebuilt into diesel-electric generator cars that provide electricity COMPARTMENT ROOM COOLER STORAGE FREEZER to the entire train. Each passenger car is connected to the PASSAGEWAY power car using a series of “jumper cables” between each car.

  • Chapter 4 – Passenger Rail Systems
    The Texas Department of Transportation anticipates issuing an amendment to this report in early 2014 to reflect recent CHAPTER FOUR – PASSENGER RAIL developments on important rail initiatives in the state. Chapter 4 – Passenger Rail Systems To improve the coordination of the planning, construction, operation and maintenance of a statewide passenger rail system in the State of Texas, S.B. 1382 (Section 201.6012- 6013, Transportation Code), an act passed by the 81st Texas Legislature and approved by the governor on June 19, 2009, requires TxDOT to prepare and update annually a long-term plan for a statewide passenger rail system. The plan must include the following information useful for the development of the vision, goals, and objectives for the passenger rail system for Texas: • A description of existing and proposed passenger rail systems; • Information regarding the status of passenger rail systems under construction; • An analysis of potential interconnectivity difficulties; • Ridership projections for proposed passenger rail projects; and • Ridership statistics for existing passenger systems. This chapter provides the information required by Section 201.6012-6013, Transportation Code, plus additional information pertinent to understanding the challenges, issues, and opportunities for developing passenger rail services in Texas. Passenger rail services are divided into six categories in this chapter and are defined as follows: • High-speed rail is defined as rail operating at speeds of at least 150 mph non- stop or with limited stops between cities. • Intercity passenger rail is defined as rail serving several cities operating at slower speeds than high speed over long-distances with more frequent stops. • Commuter and regional rail is defined as rail primarily serving work commuters between communities in an urban area or region.
