  • 4.0 Proposed Freight Rail Improvements and Investments (PDF)
    4.0 PROPOSED FREIGHT RAIL IMPROVEMENTS AND INVESTMENTS As noted in CHAPTER 3, the 2010 rail plan included a needs analysis for all freight and potential passenger rail corridors in Minnesota. This process was developed in a manner that allowed for a clear understanding of rail system needs for both current and future (2030) freight and passenger operations. A full needs analysis was not undertaken for the 2015 Minnesota State Rail Plan. Instead, projects identified on freight-only corridors in 2010 were brought forward as a basis for the update, and were complemented with crossing safety improvements and a qualitative description of capacity improvements in the past five years. The latter category incorporates projects recently identified in the 2014 Grade Crossing Safety Report compiled by MnDOT. For the most part, cost estimates presented in this document are general in nature, are reflected in original 2010 dollars and are not detailed engineering cost estimates. Although some corridors provide connections to points beyond the state border, this evaluation only reflects costs for work within Minnesota.60 More detailed information about the cost evaluation can be found in Appendix C, which also contains the detailed project list. This section is organized around previously identified capacity improvements on freight corridors—track, signal and bridge; weight, speed and track restrictions; and other major Class I improvments, followed by discussions of other potential investment areas including major capacity improvements, intermodal service expansion, positive train control, rail service relocation, and hazardous materials. Lastly, grade crossing safety needs across key crude oil corridors are specified. Overall rail needs and improvements are organized by freight rail operator and then by subdivision.

The train was to cross over from the eastward to the westward track in the town of Fall River. Train 8 entered the crossover at 70 mph and the locomotive units overturned. The authorized speed for the crossover was 10 mph. Two locomotive units and 10 passenger cars derailed, the fireman was killed, two crewmembers were injured seriously, and two received moderate injuries. Of the 215 passengers on board, 26 were injured. The National Transportation Safety Board determines that the probable cause of this accident was the Soo 'Line Railroad's procedures for crossing trains over on main line tracks which defeated the protection of the signal system. Contributing to the accident was the heavy workload of the dispatcher and operator.

  • Minnesota Comprehensive Statewide Freight and Passenger Rail Plan
    Minnesota Comprehensive Statewide Freight and Passenger Rail Plan Final Report February 2010 Minnesota Department of Transportation Transportation Building 395 John Ireland Boulevard Saint Paul, MN 55155 February 9, 2010 Dear Citizens of Minnesota, I am pleased to share with you this adopted Minnesota Comprehensive Statewide Freight and Passenger Rail Plan. This plan is the result of extensive collaboration during the past year between the Minnesota Department of Transportation and citizens, stakeholders and partners throughout Minnesota. I want to thank everyone who took the time to participate in our outreach meetings and provide comments and suggestions on the draft plan. The Comprehensive Statewide Freight and Passenger Rail Plan establishes a vision for rail in Minnesota. A vibrant freight rail system, together with a comprehensive passenger rail system, will help ensure Minnesota economic competitiveness and quality of life. As the state's transportation leader, Mn/DOT embraces its responsibility to uphold the vision and policies presented in this plan. The success of Minnesota's transportation system depends on the coordinated efforts of many public and private providers, and the policies and strategies outlined in this plan provide the framework for our joint efforts. Mn/DOT will continue to look for opportunities to involve citizens, stakeholders and partners in the implementation of this plan and in future investment and policy decisions. Together, we can realize the shared vision of a safe, efficient and sustainable transportation system. Sincerely, Thomas K. Sorel Commissioner An Equal Opportunity Employer Minnesota Comprehensive Statewide Freight and Passenger Rail Plan final report Minnesota Comprehensive Statewide Freight and Passenger Rail Plan prepared for Minnesota Department of Transportation prepared by Cambridge Systematics, Inc.
