    Project Planning Documentation

    Project Planning Documentation Overview of Project Project funding will be used to complete necessary preliminary engineering and NEPA for a new 250 mile high-speed core express service between Dallas-Fort Worth and Houston. Based on the preliminary planning summarized in this document, the Dallas-Fort Worth to Houston route could utilize one of three routes analyzed, consisting of a BNSF route through Teague, a UPRR route through College Station, or a new green field route that parallels I-45. Additionally, all three of the routes include segments of the UPRR Terminal and West Belt Subdivisions in order to connect to the existing passenger rail station in downtown Houston and a small portion of the UPRR Dallas Subdivision to connect to the existing passenger rail station (Union Station) in Dallas. Purpose and Need The purpose of the Dallas/Fort Worth to Houston core express service preliminary engineering and NEPA documentation is to prepare the project for the next stage of final design and construction. The Dallas/Fort Worth to Houston corridor has been included in the Texas Rail Plan as well as a research study performed by the Texas Transportation Institute (TTI), and the America 2050 report as a key corridor with need for high speed rail service. Texas Rail Plan TxDOT completed and published the Texas Rail Plan in November 2010, which included a short term and long term program for passenger rail.

  • Union Depot Tower Interlocking Plant

    Union Depot Tower Interlocking Plant

    Union Depot Tower Union Depot Tower (U.D. Tower) was completed in 1914 as part of a municipal project to improve rail transportation through Joliet, which included track elevation of all four railroad lines that went through downtown Joliet and the construction of a new passenger station to consolidate the four existing passenger stations into one. A result of this overall project was the above-grade intersection of 4 north-south lines with 4 east-west lines. The crossing of these rail lines required sixteen track diamonds. A diamond is a fixed intersection between two tracks. The purpose of UD Tower was to ensure and coordinate the safe and timely movement of trains through this critical intersection of east-west and north-south rail travel. UD Tower housed the mechanisms for controlling the various rail switches at the intersection, also known as an interlocking plant. Interlocking Plant Interlocking plants consisted of the signaling appliances and tracks at the intersections of major rail lines that required a method of control to prevent collisions and provide for the efficient movement of trains. Most interlocking plants had elevated structures that housed mechanisms for controlling the various rail switches at the intersection. Union Depot Tower is such an elevated structure.

Tower was owned and operated by the four rail companies with lines that came through downtown Joliet.

    ATSF Furniture Car 7176

    ATSF Furniture Car 7176 This piece of Oklahoma Railway Museum’s rolling stock has had an interesting history. It was originally built in 1928 by the General American Transportation Corporation for the ATSF (Santa Fe) Railroad. It was constructed as a double-door, 50-foot, Class Fe-S (furniture car) with a wooden body, steel underframe and ends. In 1941, the car was modified into a Class Fe-22 by the Santa Fe Railroad in their shops at Topeka, Kansas. This rebuild utilized the frame, trucks and some other parts of the original car. However, the wood sides were replaced with steel and one-inch thick interior wood lining. It was rated with a capacity of 50 tons loaded in 4927 cubic feet of interior space. Although listed by Santa Fe as a furniture car, it was set up to haul trucks, automobiles, farm equipment and heavy machinery. Hence, at the ORM, it is often referred to as an auto boxcar. The car was equipped with tie-down chains in floor, mounted storage tubes and other interior components to load and secure the vehicles. Another unique aspect of the rebuild was the opening end doors which provided full- width access to the inside of the car for easy loading. The auto boxcar was painted in what was called the “Map Scheme.” As it sounds, it had a large straight-line Santa Fe system map on one side of the boxcar. The slogan of one of Santa Fe’s crack passenger trains was painted on the other side: in the case of this car, “The Route of El Capitan, Only All Coach Chicago-Los Angeles Streamliner.” The as-built paint colors were a mineral brown body and ends, black roof and underbody, with white lettering.
