Material: Abstract: The Pennsylvania Railroad Company was the largest railroad in the United States in terms of corporate assets and traffic in the last quarter of the nineteenth century. This small collection of photographs covers the planning, surveying, and building of the Pennsylvania Railroad tunnels under the Hudson River, connecting New Jersey and New York in the early twentieth century. ^ Return to Table of Contents Historical Note The Pennsylvania Railroad Company was the largest railroad in the United States in terms of corporate assets and traffic in the last quarter of the nineteenth century. It was chartered in 1846 to complete an all-rail road across the state, a goal that was accomplished in 1854. In 1857, the company purchased the state's old "Main Line" of canals and railroads and brought the entire line from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh under one management. Between 1855 and 1874, the Pennsylvania Railroad Company underwent rapid expansion and emerged as one of the two largest railroad systems in the area east of the Mississippi and north of the Ohio. Through stock purchase or lease, it reached Baltimore in 1861, Chicago and Indianapolis in 1869, St. Louis in 1870, Jersey City opposite New York in 1871, and Washington in 1872. Purchase of the Philadelphia, Wilmington & Baltimore Railroad in 1881 brought complete control of the important New York-Washington corridor. By the end of the nineteenth century, the Pennsylvania Railroad Company was actively exploring the possibilities of extending their line into New York City. At that time, passengers coming to the city from - Page 3- Pennsylvania Railroad Hudson River tunnel construction photographs 1971.594 the west had to leave the train with their baggage and take a ferryboat to Manhattan. In order to overcome this disadvantage, the company announced plans for a scheme of tunnels under the Hudson River into a New York station, and from there a connection to the Long Island Railroad. Construction began in 1902 and the tunnels were completed in 1909. ^ Return to Table of Contents Scope and Contents This collection of photographs show the planning, surveying, and building of the Pennsylvania Railroad tunnels under the Hudson River. Subjects include surveyors triangulating the route of the tunnels, laborers working in the tunnels, and various tools, gauges, and devices. Some views show the area around New Jersey before construction. ^ Return to Table of Contents Administrative Information Publication Statement Audiovisual Collections PO Box 3630 Wilmington, Delaware 19807 [email protected] URL: http://www.hagley.org/library Access Restrictions No restrictions on access; this collection is open for research. ^ Return to Table of Contents - Page 4- Pennsylvania Railroad Hudson River tunnel construction photographs 1971.594 Related Materials Related Materials Pennsylvania Railroad photographs (Accession 1988.231), Audiovisual Collections and Digital Initiatives Department, Hagley Museum and Library. ^ Return to Table of Contents Controlled Access Headings • Railroads. • Tunnels • Railroads -- Buildings and structures • Railroad engineering • Pennsylvania Railroad Collection Inventory Title/Description Instances Alignment bar (third and last type) plumb bob and light box , 1908 volume 1 item 26 December 19 Scope and Contents T46.

  • NEC One-Year Implementation Plan: FY17 Contents
    Northeast Corridor One-Year Implementation Plan Fiscal Year 2017 September 2016 Congress established the Northeast Corridor Commission to develop coordinated strategies for improving the Northeast’s core rail network in recognition of the inherent challenges of planning, financing, and implementing major infrastructure improvements that cross multiple jurisdictions. The expectation is that by coming together to take collective responsibility for the NEC, these disparate stakeholders will achieve a level of success that far exceeds the potential reach of any individual organization. The Commission is governed by a board comprised of one member from each of the NEC states (Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland) and the District of Columbia; four members from Amtrak; and five members from the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT). The Commission also includes non-voting representatives from four freight railroads, states with connecting corridors and several commuter operators in the Region. 2| NEC One-Year Implementation Plan: FY17 Contents Introduction 6 Funding Summary 8 Baseline Capital Charge Program 10 1 - Boston South Station 12 16 - Shore to Girard 42 2 - Boston to Providence 14 17 - Girard to Philadelphia 30th Street 44 3 - Providence to Wickford Junction 16 18 - Philadelphia 30th Street - Arsenal 46 4 - Wickford Junction to New London 18 19 - Arsenal to Marcus Hook 48 5 - New London to New Haven 20 20 - Marcus Hook to Bacon 50 6 - New Haven to State Line 22 21 - Bacon to Perryville 52 7 - State Line to New Rochelle 24 22 - Perryville to WAS 54 8 - New Rochelle to Harold Interlocking 26 23 - Washington Union Terminal 56 9 - Harold Interlocking to F Interlocking 28 24 - WAS to CP Virginia 58 10 - F Interlocking to PSNY 30 25 - Springfield to New Haven 60 11 - Penn Terminal 32 27 - Spuyten Duyvil to PSNY* 62 12 - PSNY to Trenton 34 28 - 30th St.

  • “Major Infrastructure Failure” with Five-Hour Delays in Century-Old
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 22, 2019 Contact: Steve Sigmund – [email protected]; 917-459-7794 Craig Schulz – [email protected]; 212-630-6041 New Analysis Finds 85 Days of “Major Infrastructure Failure” With Five-Hour Delays in Century-Old Tunnel and Bridge Data Shows Almost 2,000 Lost Hours for Passengers, Findings Demonstrate Urgency of Gateway Program to Relieve Delays and Improve Service NEWARK – New analysis that was issued today during a meeting of the Gateway Program Development Corporation (GDC) Board of Trustees found dramatic delays throughout the Northeast Corridor caused by failures at the North River Tunnel and Portal Bridge, both of which are 108 years old. The analysis, based on five years of data provided by NJ TRANSIT and Amtrak, found 85 days between the beginning of 2014 and the end of 2018 where infrastructure failures in the tunnel and on the bridge caused more than five hours of delays for NJ TRANSIT and Amtrak passengers. In total, the incidents caused 112,800 minutes of train delay, or almost 2,000 lost hours in extra transit time. “Regular delays are unacceptable for any amount of time, but these 85 major delay days are particularly bad, adding up to more than one day a month of major delays.” said GDC Board Chair and New Jersey Trustee Jerry Zaro. “Commuters are rightly frustrated at being forced to arrive very late to work and parents dismayed over lost time otherwise spent with family and children. It’s past time to build Gateway and give passengers the reliability they pay for and deserve.” “The North River Tunnel and the Portal Bridge might only represent a few miles of track, but they link 20% of the nation’s economy and carry 200,000 people per day.

  • Analyzing the Potential for Commuter Train Run-Through Service at New York Penn Station August 7, 2014
    Analyzing the Potential for Commuter Train Run-Through Service at New York Penn Station August 7, 2014 Prepared by Amtrak Northeast Corridor Infrastructure Investment and Development And Amtrak Operations Research Groups Abstract This paper provides a brief review of Amtrak research on the potential of through running of commuter operations in Penn Station, New York. It is intended to help inform the larger community interested in the concept as well as to assist in the planning and analysis within a number of studies of Penn Station and the Northeast Corridor that are currently underway. The paper describes through running concepts in general, and then identifies operational and infrastructure conditions specific to Penn Station which should be addressed in order to undertake a successful revenue service. Analysis discussed in this paper finds that: commuter trains would lead to fewer peak a) absent the construction of purpose-built period trains and/or less reliable operations facilities to provide wider station platforms under representative service scenarios and, b) the introduction of more robust evaluated. vertical passenger access, a through running service with high performance service Potential Through Running Territory characteristics found in other railway systems is not achievable at Penn Station. Further, current operations are optimized around the existing terminal infrastructure with its two main support yards serving in a critical role to achieving very high levels of performance. Without investment in new station facilities to compensate for the utility provided by yards, the introduction of a through running revenue service with Table of Contents Who is interested in through running and why? .............................................................................

  • And Description of the Preferred Alternative
    Project Alternatives Chapter 2: and Description of the Preferred Alternative 2.1 INTRODUCTION The proposed Hudson Tunnel Project (the Project or the Proposed Action) would consist of a new rail tunnel under the Hudson River (referred to as the Hudson River Tunnel), new surface tracks in New Jersey and railroad infrastructure connecting the new rail tunnel to the existing Northeast Corridor (NEC) in Secaucus, New Jersey and at Penn Station New York (PSNY), together with rehabilitation of the existing NEC tunnel beneath the Hudson River, known as the North River Tunnel. The primary purpose of the Project is to enable rehabilitation of the North River Tunnel without major disruptions to passenger rail service into and out of PSNY. In addition, when completed, the Project would result in a total of four tracks on the NEC from Secaucus, New Jersey, to PSNY with both the old and new tunnels in service. This would provide redundant capability and increased operational flexibility for the National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak) and the New Jersey Transit Corporation (NJ TRANSIT), which both operate passenger trains on the NEC between New Jersey and New York. Since publication of the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS), the Preferred Alternative has been refined from what was presented in the DEIS as a result of design advancement and changes made in response to comments received on the DEIS. Amtrak has continued to advance the design of the Preferred Alternative, including incorporating design refinements based on further engineering analysis and information, resulting in some modifications to the design presented in the DEIS.

  • Amtrak Testimony
    Testimony before the New York State Senate Standing Committee on Corporations, Authorities and Commissions and the Senate Standing Committee on Transportation May 7, 2021 10:00 a.m. Virtual Testimony given by: Dennis Newman, Executive Vice President – Planning and Asset Development Gerhard Williams, Vice President and Chief Engineer Clavel Crump, Director of Capital Construction Thank you Chairmen (Leroy) Comrie and (Tim) Kennedy for the opportunity to testify today to the commitments that Amtrak has made and the plans we are developing for the work to restore our railroad infrastructure in New York, especially the tunnels under the East River. My name is Dennis Newman. I am the Executive Vice President of Planning and Asset Development for Amtrak. I am joined by Gery Williams, our Vice President and Chief Engineer as well as Clavel Crump, Director of Capital Construction. Clavel was one of the first on the scene after Superstorm Sandy flooded the East and North River Tunnels in 2012 – he has been instrumental in removing the water and caring for the tunnels ever since. Today we will touch on the status of plans for rehabilitation of the East River Tunnel, and related work in support of MTA projects such as East Side Access and Penn Station Access. These projects are all interdependent and must be closely linked if we are to realize our vision for a robust transportation network that supports not just the economy of America’s largest city but the rest of the Northeast Corridor between Washington and Boston – a territory that accounts for some 20% of America’s GDP.
