Total wages of Amtrak employees living in Indiana were $49,136,110 during FY17. PRIIA Section 209 The Passenger Rail Investment and Improvement Act of 2008 (P.L. 110-432) required, by October 2013, an equitable arrangement of cost sharing between Amtrak and state or public agency partners that provide funding for short-distance, intercity train services. Agreements were reached with all parties, including Indiana, by the deadline, and the services continued to run without interruption. Amtrak MidwestSM services Amtrak operates the state-supported Hoosier State, under contract with the State of Indiana. It runs four days a week (the days the Cardinal does not run), Indianapolis-Lafayette-Chicago. This train is part of the five-state Amtrak Midwest SM network of services. Other amenities provide additional revenue sources, and these Chicago hub and St. Louis hub services carried 4,704 bicycles and 2,143 pets in FY17. Beech Grove Shops Amtrak’s principal heavy maintenance facility is located in Beech Grove, southeast of Indianapolis. Here, 529 employees rebuild and overhaul Amtrak’s Superliner, Viewliner, Surfliner, Heritage, and Horizon car fleets. P32, P42, and F59 locomotives also are overhauled and rebuilt here for use across the Amtrak system, as is other equipment for Amtrak’s state partners and other passenger railroads. Amtrak performed heavy overhaul, periodic maintenance, repainting, and other upkeep on 180 pieces of equipment in FY17. 2 The Beech Grove Shops supply components to other Amtrak facilities, including couplers, overhauled air conditioners, overhauled air brake valves, and about 300 other types of components unavailable elsewhere. Indianapolis Distribution Center The Indianapolis Distribution Center (IDC) is Amtrak’s largest material and supply facility. Clean and modern, the IDC boasts 180,000 square feet of inside storage space. Using state-of-the-art technology, 16,000 stock-keeping-units (SKUs) are inventoried electronically to prevent issues innate to manual cataloging and to keep the stock instantaneously updated. The IDC is conveniently located less than a mile from the Beech Grove shops. It employs approximately 30 full- and part-time personnel. Material for all purposes, from coach seats to toilet paper and locomotive parts, are distributed from the IDC to 31 Amtrak terminals nationwide. Station Improvements Waterloo: In June 2016, the historic Waterloo train station (1884) reopened for Amtrak services. The station was relocated and refurbished by the Town of Waterloo using a TIGER grant. The station has been modernized to meet contemporary code and replaces a bus-shelter type station. Chicago-Detroit Improvements and Capital Projects Indiana Gateway: As part of the High-Speed Intercity Passenger Rail Program (HSIPR), the State of Indiana was the recipient of a $71.4-million grant to alleviate congestion at the major rail junction at Porter. Multiple railroads meet here, including three Amtrak routes to Michigan and two Amtrak National Network routes from Chicago to the East Coast. This is one of the most congested stretches of railroad in the world. In 2016, final construction was completed on eight separate improvements from Porter west to the Illinois state line. Seven of the improvements are on track owned by Norfolk Southern and the eighth on Amtrak’s Michigan Line east of Porter. The work on the Amtrak line includes installation of high- speed crossover tracks and related signal improvements. South of the Lake Route Alternatives Analysis Report: Amtrak and the states of Illinois, Indiana, and Michigan are participating in an alternatives analysis to determine the best route for passenger trains running east from Chicago toward Michigan and the East Coast. This FRA-managed analysis will choose from one of four routes to establish a passenger-centered corridor. The FRA is expected to publish the Final Environmental Impact Statement and Record of Decision for the preferred route in spring 2018. 3 Pere Marquette Blue Water Wolverines TO MICHIGAN POINTS Hammond- Michigan South E lkhart Orland Whiting City Trail C reek Bend E lkhart Middlebury L agrange Fremont Town of P ines Lagrange Angola Porter Mishawaka Lake Shore Limited S aint J os eph La P orte G oshen S teuben C hesterton O G A IC H C O Hammond P ortage Kingsbury North Liberty CaWpaitkoarlu sa Topeka Ashley Hamilton T Gary Westville Lakeville Millersburg R ome C ity Valparaiso L a P orte Ligonier L ake Merrillville Walkerton Bremen Nappanee Kendallville Waterloo LimiteSdyracuse Wanatah Noble Albion Butler O C rown P oint Hamlet Plymouth Milford Avilla Auburn Dyer P orter C romwell D Leesburg De K alb C edar Lake Kouts La C rosse North Webster G arrett S tarke S aint Joe E L Hebron Bourbon E tna G reen O K os cius ko T Lowell Knox Mars hall Huntertown DeMotte North Judson C ulver C hurubusco O S chneider Argos Winona Lake Leo-C edarville T Wheatfield Monterey Mentone Warsaw Burket C olumbia C ity Woodburn Medaryville P ulas ki C laypool Allen Fair Oaks R ochester Whitley G ifford Akron Newton J as per Winamac Kewanna S ilver Lake S outh Whitley Fort Wayne New Haven Francesville Fulton Morocco Macy North Manchester Monroeville R ens s elaer Fulton Wabas h R oanoke Huntington Cardinal Monon R oyal C enter Denver R oann Ossian Brook Andrews Markle C as s Miami Wabash Lagro Kentland Huntington Decatur Wolcott Burnettsville Logansport Adams R emington P eru Mount E tna Wells Monticello Bluffton Monroe E arl P ark Yeoman Onward Warren C halmers Berne Fowler C arroll Walton Bunker Hill La Fontaine P oneto White Brookston G eneva C amden G alveston Van Buren B enton Delphi C onverse Marion Montpelier Boswell Oxford Battle G round Flora G rant Otterbein Kokomo G as C ity B lackford P ennville Bryant Ambia Burlington G reentown Howard J onesboro J ay P ortland West Lafayette L afayette R ussiaville Upland Hartford C ity Warren Dayton R ossville S harpsville Fairmount Tippecanoe Mulberry Michigantown Tipton Windfall C ity Dunkirk R edkey S hadeland E aton Williamsport Attica C linton Kempton Tipton R idgeville E lwood Alexandria Albany Frankfort Delaware Union C larks Hill Frankton S tate Line C ity New R ichmond Muncie C ity Kirklin Arcadia Yorktown Farmland Linden C olfax Madis on C ovington C icero Winchester Hillsboro Thorntown S heridan Anderson C hesterfield R andolph VeedersburgFountain Hamilton Hoosier StaBtoeone Middletown Blountsville Lynn C rawfords ville Lebanon Westfield Noblesville P errysville Mount S ummit Losantville Montgomery Advance C armel E conomy C ayuga New R oss Fishers P endleton C adiz Kingman Alamo Jamestown Zionsville New C astle Fortville Kennard Wayne Whitewater Newport Waveland Ladoga Meridian Hills Henry Hagerstown Brownsburg Marion Hancock G reensboro Vermillion Bloomingdale R oachdale C ambridge C ity P arke Indianapolis G reenfield R ichmond Montezuma R ockville Bainbridge Danville S peedway Knightstown Avon C arthage P utnam P lainfield Boston Mecca Beech R us h Hendricks Morristown C onners ville C linton G reencastle Liberty R osedale G rove R ushville S tilesville Mooresville S helby C arbon G reenwood G lenwood Fayette Union Harmony Brooklyn J ohns on Manilla Terre C loverdale Whiteland Cardi Laurel Brazil Morgan nal I West Terre Haute Haute Milroy Franklin T Franklin Shelbyville A Martinsville C enter P oint Trafalgar Brookville N Vigo C lay S aint P aul N P aragon E dinburgh C edar G rove I R iley G osport P rinces Lakes Milford Greensburg C N Hope S aint Leon I S pencer S tinesville Decatur Oldenburg Taylorsville Batesville C Farmersburg Owen B rown C lay C ity E llettsville B artholomew Hartsville S unman O Nashville Napoleon T S helburn Hymera Bloomington C olumbus Westport Jasonville Milan S ullivan Worthington Monroe E lizabethtown Osgood Lawrenceburg Merom Versailles

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Phase II Amtrak paint schemes or "Phases" (referred to by Amtrak), are a series of livery applied to the outside of their rolling stock in the United States. The livery phases appeared as different designs, with a majority using a red, white, and blue (the colors of the American flag) format, except for promotional trains, state partnership routes, and the Acela "splotches" phase. The first Amtrak Phases started to emerge around 1972, shortly after Amtrak's formation. Phase paint schemes Phase I F40PH in Phase II Livery Phase II was one of the first paint schemes of Amtrak to use entirely the "stripe" style.

    Rep. McCann offered the following concurrent resolution: House Concurrent Resolution No. 41. A concurrent resolution to urge the National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak) to pursue bicycle friendly policies by providing for bicycles on board trains and bicycle parking in future station plans. Whereas, An efficient, modern, transportation system is a pillar of a healthy economic climate and vital for Michigan's future. All modes of 21st century transportation infrastructure should be made accessible to modern travelers, whether tourists or commuters. Seamless multi-modal connections are essential to facilitate tourism and to allow greater mobility for bike commuters and those without cars. Bicyclists should be able to switch between transportation modes and link trips by bringing bicycles on trains without having to check them as boxed luggage. Bicycle tourism and commuting would be further accommodated with short and long-term bike parking at Amtrak stations. Unfortunately, Amtrak does not allow bicycles on board Michigan routes at this time and bike parking is not always available; and Whereas, Amtrak's routes out of Chicago, the Downstate Illinois Service and Missouri River Runner, offer roll-on bike service; the option to bring bicycles on board, either by storing bikes on board in bike racks, or secured as checked baggage with tie-down equipment (not in a box), and allow folding bicycles on board as carry-on baggage. All three of the Michigan Amtrak routes, The Blue Water, Lake Shore Limited and Pere Marquette lines, use the same equipment as Chicago area trains and would only have to update the reservations system to allow bikes on board in Michigan; and Whereas, Bicycle tourism is a booming industry and many Michigan bike tour events are located in or near cities accessible by Amtrak service.
