  • Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) 2040
    Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) 2040 4.5 RAIL TRANSPORTATION The North Carolina Railroad between Greensboro and Raleigh is an important transportation link. The communities along the corridor and their economies are growing. Improvements to the railroad are important for mobility, freight movement, and safety. Much of the corridor remains on the alignment laid out in the mid-1800s, which envisioned maximum train speeds of 45 mph. As part of the federally- designated Southeast High Speed Rail Corridor, this segment of railroad will need significant improvements for capacity and speed (NCDOT). Passenger Rail Three AMTRAK trains operate through the historic passenger rail terminal in High Point (Carolinian-Piedmont Schedule, 2012) (Crescent Schedule, 2012). Table 4.5-1 shows the trains, scheduled departure time, route and direction of the trains. To support passenger rail service, the Piedmont Authority for Regional Transportation provides connector service from the AMTRAK station to Winston-Salem for trains 73, 74, and 76. Time schedules and fare information are available at: http://www.bytrain.org/docs/5AmtrakConnectorweb.pdf.

This is the carefully annotated study of a good many of the important large railroads of the United States complete within their own files, these to be found within the official state of incorporation. Here will be included page references to the frequently huge number of small short-line roads that usually wound up by being “taken in” to the larger and expending Class II and I roads. Some of these files, such as the New York Central or the Pennsylvania Railroad are very big themselves. Michigan, Wisconsin, Oregon, and Washington are large because the many lumber railroads have been extensively studied out.
