Railcars at Rocky Flats Community Final 11-04-04.Indd
Rocky Flats Fact Sheet Transporting low-level radioactive waste from Rocky Flats using railcars Transporting low-level radioactive waste from Rocky Flats using railcars The Rocky Flats Closure Project is one of the largest environmental cleanup operations in the world. Rocky Flats, located approximately 15 miles northwest of Denver, produced plutonium and uranium components for the U.S. nuclear weapons program from 1953 until 1989. The operations left a legacy of radioactive and hazardous waste contamination. Cleanup operations began in earnest in 1995. As part of closure, all radioactive and hazardous waste will be shipped from Rocky Flats to waste disposal sites in other states. No waste will be permanently stored or disposed of on site. Currently, all low-level radioactive waste leaving Rocky Flats is transported by truck. As the Rocky Flats Closure Project Cleaning up Rocky Flats will return thousands of acres to the citizens of Colorado. The nears completion, demolition of former site will become a national wildlife refuge. manufacturing buildings signifi cantly increases the volume of low-level radioactive waste. To improve effi ciency and worker safety, the project will use railcars to ship very low-level waste to the Envirocare disposal facility in Utah. Using rail may eliminate as many as 5,000 truck shipments. Background The complex job of cleaning up and closing down Rocky Flats involves removing massive quantities of radioactive waste. To date, after nine years of shipping, Rocky Flats has safely shipped approximately 260,000 cubic meters (65 percent) of the projected 400,000 cubic meters of radioactive waste that will be generated during closure. -

Russia 2Faculty of Operation and Economics of Transport and Communications, Zilina, Univerzitná 8215/1, 010 26, Republic of Slovakia Abstract. The article studies the main trends in the market of container transportation in rolling stock of various types, considers the process of transporting large-capacity containers in open wagons. The operational and economic aspects of removing administrative restrictions on the implementation of this type of transportation are noted. The dynamics of rental rates for rental of gondola cars and platforms in 2019-2020 is present. The summary characteristics of the gondola car fleet and fitting platforms on the Russian Railways network have been study. The analysis of the market share of the largest owners of gondola cars and fitting platforms was carry out. The advantages and disadvantages of using the technology of container transportation in open wagons are list. Solutions are propose to create a competitive environment in the container transportation segment of the transport services market. 1 Introduction Currently, containers are transport on fitting platforms, but theoretically, according to international rules, they can also be transport in open wagons: 40-feet - horizontally per piece, 20-feet - two each, and empty 20-feet - even three. From December 1, 2014, the local technical conditions (LTC) for the placement and fastening of universal containers in gondola cars with unloading hatches were cancel. -

Address all communication to Secretary to the Commission United States International Trade Commission Washington, DC 20436 www.usitc.gov Preface The United States International Trade Commission (USITC) has initiated its current Industry and Trade Summary series of reports to provide information on the rapidly evolving trade and competitive situation of the thousands of products imported into and exported from the United States. Over the past 20 years, U.S. international trade in goods and services has risen by almost 350 percent, compared to an increase of 180 percent in the U.S. gross domestic product (GDP), before falling sharply in late 2008 and 2009 due to the economic downturn. During the same two decades, international supply chains have become more global and competition has increased. Each Industry and Trade Summary addresses a different commodity or industry and contains information on trends in consumption, production, and trade, as well as an analysis of factors affecting industry trends and competitiveness in domestic and foreign markets. This report on the railway rolling stock industry primarily covers the period from 2004 to 2009, and includes data for 2010 where available. -

Caboose Progress the Freighthouse So It Could Accept Visitors
Issue Number 57 San Luis Obispo, California Fall 2016 www.slorrm.com Museum open every Saturday 10:00 to 4:00; other times for groups by arrangement. Contact [email protected]. Recognition for Major Supporters A new board mounted in the exhibit hall identifies Last in the Train – But First On the List those who made major contributions to upgrading Caboose Progress the Freighthouse so it could accept visitors. Volunteers have given high priority to restoring form- er Southern Pacific bay window caboose #1886 –seats, flooring, painting, hardware, and fixtures—aiming for public tours by the Railroad Festival in October. Work has progressed with the support of several Museum and community members. Brad LaRose, Dennis Lynch, Dan Manion, and Bob Wilson in particular have spent many hours returning the heavily used and somewhat abused interior to near original condition. Cabooses accommodated freight conductors and brakemen, who worked with waybills and switch lists, monitored brake-line air pressure, kept an eye on the whole train, and protected the rear of the train. The body of a bay window caboose was narrower than a typical car, with the bay’s slanted end windows allowing a clear view of the train on even gradual curves. SP used bay window cabooses from the late 1940s through the end of the Tank Car Arrives at the Museum “caboose era” in the 1980s. Three photos by Glen Matteson Several years of searching, negotiating, and planning paid off July 29 when this former Southern Pacific tank car arrived at the Museum. Thanks to Curator Brad LaRose’s diligence, it was donated by Union Pacific Railroad.
