    0.2 Executive Summary

    2010 Montana State Rail Plan Executive Summary The 2010 Montana State Rail Plan describes historical and forecasted freight trends, provides operating and system characteristics of the State’s freight rail system, and summarizes ongoing efforts to expand and secure funding for addi- tional passenger rail service through the State. The Plan also describes the impact of grain facility consolidation; identifies potential rail funding programs to acquire, improve, establish, or rehabilitate intermodal rail equipment or facili- ties; and lists several other ongoing issues affecting rail service in Montana, such as rail competition and growing freight volumes. The following sections sum- marize the key topics in each chapter of the 2010 Montana State Rail Plan. FREIGHT TRENDS As consumer demand for goods has increased over the past several decades, freight service demand has grown along with it (Figure ES.1). In 2005, over 4.5 trillion ton-miles of freight were shipped in the United States – about 15,300 ton- miles per capita. Rail transportation, the fastest growing among the freight modes, represented the largest share (38 percent) of the freight ton-miles shipped in the United States. National increases in freight volume between 2002 and 2035 are generally balanced among modes, and increases in volume will be strongest in intermodal and truck movements. In Montana, growth in freight volume and value is concentrated in truck and intermodal movements, as rail shipments of coal and agricultural products are not expected to expand dramatically in vol- ume or value. This section of the report has extensive data on the modal shares of freight in Montana.

Ex-BC RAIL DASH 8- 40CM(u) 4615 which was purchased new from GE in 1990 has been at CADRAIL-Lachine for several months and included in the work to be done was an upgrade, and a complete CN repaint with BCOL sub-lettering under the cab number. She was moved from CADRAIL in Lachine to CN’s Pte-St. Charles Yard for testing, and In a light power move N SBK05 17 departed CN’s Pte-St. Charles Oct 17th with CN 4774 and BCOL 4615 and hours later arrived at CN-Taschereau Yard. Freshly painted CN (BCOL) 4615 was ready to head out the next day, and arrived in Toronto-Mac Yard on October 18th (Dave Parker photo), and on October 22nd she was a trailing unit on Westbound CN Train #853 at Dauphin, MB. http://railfan.thegrebs.com/CN/CN_BCR_4615_Toronto_ON_Oct_18_08_Dave_Parker http://www.myrailfan.com/collection/CN/BCOL_4615/BCOL_4615_CAD_1.jpg (Jan.2008, before new paint) CN has ordered another 25 SD70M-2’s which are to be numbered from 8850 to 8874. These will be similar in appearance to the previous order, but will have a few internal improvements. The CN’s 8800-series are equipped with an Automatic Start when the pressure is down to 105 lbs, and these locomotives start up with an “air starter” (which is similar to the MLW-built M630’s).

They were the last full diners built before the advent of Amtrak. They displaced the Pullman-Standard dining cars NP 450-455 to service on the Mainstreeter. The Budd diners operated between Chicago and Seattle until the end of BN service in 1971. Dining cars were cycled in and out of eastbound No. 26 at St. Paul Union Depot and were serviced at the nearby NP Commissary. Five of the six cars were purchased by Amtrak in 1971 and operated in the North Coast Hiawatha, and later in the "Heritage Fleet", particularly on the trains between Chicago and New York and Washington. A typical summer consist for the North Coast Limited of the late 1950's and 1960's is listed below.

Pressured by intense competition on the route between Chicago and Minneapolis/St. Paul — includ- ing the Burlington's pioneering diesel Twin Zephyrs W— the Milwaukee Road had turned to the American Locomotive Works to design the fastest steam loco- motives of the day. The results did not disappoint. Lehigh Valley - 4-6-4 Streamlined Hudson Steamer 30-1486-1 w/Proto-Sound 2.0 $399.95 The Hiawathas were initially headed by oil burning Alco 4-4-2 Atlantics created specifically for intense 100 mile per hour daily operations. The engines and their entire trains were renowned for their col- orful, aerodynamic styling by industrial designer Otto Kuhler — who lamented, however, that "I did get disgusted every time an uninitiated person asked me, 'Is that a diesel?'" The Hiawathas seduced passengers with luxurious surroundings that included the Tip Top Tap Room, the first standup cocktail bar on American rails.
