  • Assessment of Railway Activity and Train Noise Exposure
    ASSESSMENT OF RAILWAY ACTIVITY AND TRAIN NOISE EXPOSURE: A TEANECK, NEW JERSEY, CASE STUDY By Craig B. Anderson A thesis submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Graduate Program in Atmospheric Science written under the direction of Dr. Barbara J. Turpin and approved by ________________________ ________________________ ________________________ ________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey October 2009 ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS Assessment of Railway Activity and Train Noise Exposure: A Teaneck, New Jersey, Case Study by CRAIG B. ANDERSON Thesis Director: Dr. Barbara J. Turpin Three train tracks run through Teaneck, NJ, a suburban city, unimpeded by road crossings; the tracks are as close as 7 meters to residential properties. In 2000, trains began idling in Teaneck for extended periods of time (up to 54 hours), exposing residents to persistent, elevated sound levels, as well as diesel emissions, and generating complaints. The goals of this study were to characterize the time-activity patterns of passby and idling trains; idling locations; and the sound emission levels of passbys, idling locomotives, and train horns over a one-year period. From October 2006 through November 2007, source sound levels were measured continuously with a Norsonic 121 sound-level meter and WAV files of actual sounds were recorded during train events. Concurrently, research staff visually noted train activities 24 hours/day, every third day, for three consecutive weeks each season, including train direction, track, idle location, locomotive-to-meter distance (idles), and other identifying information. Specific source characterization measurements of individual locomotives were made at measured distances with a hand-held Quest 2900 sound-level meter.
