  • Riding an Amtrak Train Cross-Country: a Unique View of America
    Democracy Dies in Darkness Riding an Amtrak train cross-country: A unique view of America There I was, in the middle of the Rocky Mountains, looking down at the Colorado River. Animal tracks in the snow made a dotted line beside the water. But where, I wondered, were the bighorn sheep? The black bears? I pressed my nose to the glass and followed the tracks carefully, expecting — any second now — to see wildlife. I was in my 40th hour aboard Amtrak, nearly 2,000 miles into a 3,218-mile cross-country adventure. I’d packed five books, my laptop, several movies and hours of music, figuring that I’d have plenty of time to kill. But I hadn’t unpacked any of it. Instead, I was so enthralled by the landscape that I’d forgotten I was supposed to be bored. And at this moment, I was convinced that if I focused with all my might, I would spot an animal. Just then, the cafe car attendant yelled up from down below: “Other side!” As he sprinted up the stairs, a couple of us hurled ourselves to the right side of the car. “Did you see the elk?” he asked breathlessly. By that point, the elk were far behind us. I returned to my seat and resolved to enjoy the view, with or without giant creature sightings. But before long, the animal prints had lured my gaze back to the snow deep in the canyon, on the bank of the river. This wasn’t my first time in the middle of the Rockies.

  • Bilevel Rail Car - Wikipedia
    Bilevel rail car - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilevel_rail_car Bilevel rail car The bilevel car (American English) or double-decker train (British English and Canadian English) is a type of rail car that has two levels of passenger accommodation, as opposed to one, increasing passenger capacity (in example cases of up to 57% per car).[1] In some countries such vehicles are commonly referred to as dostos, derived from the German Doppelstockwagen. The use of double-decker carriages, where feasible, can resolve capacity problems on a railway, avoiding other options which have an associated infrastructure cost such as longer trains (which require longer station Double-deck rail car operated by Agence métropolitaine de transport platforms), more trains per hour (which the signalling or safety in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The requirements may not allow) or adding extra tracks besides the existing Lucien-L'Allier station is in the back line. ground. Bilevel trains are claimed to be more energy efficient,[2] and may have a lower operating cost per passenger.[3] A bilevel car may carry about twice as many as a normal car, without requiring double the weight to pull or material to build. However, a bilevel train may take longer to exchange passengers at each station, since more people will enter and exit from each car. The increased dwell time makes them most popular on long-distance routes which make fewer stops (and may be popular with passengers for offering a better view).[1] Bilevel cars may not be usable in countries or older railway systems with Bombardier double-deck rail cars in low loading gauges.

  • Containerized Grain Supply Chain in Western Canada: Opportunities and Regulatory Barriers
    Containerized Grain Supply Chain in Western Canada: Opportunities and Regulatory Barriers Dr. Barry E. Prentice Professor, Supply Chain Management I.H. Asper School of Business University of Manitoba Synopsis The containerization of grain is a growing trend internationally. Many western Canadian grain shippers would like to source-load containers on the Prairies, but most shippers are forced to trans-load at the ports after their grain arrives by other means. The problem is the Revenue Cap. This regulation creates a double disincentive that discourages the railways from moving grain in containers. In addition to the lost marketing opportunities for farmers, this regulatory barrier impedes the use of containers to serve as an elastic supply of storage and transport during demand surges. The removal of the Revenue Cap would encourage development of a contestable market based on a competitive containerized grain shipping supply chain to rival the bulk system, such that shippers could always receive the lowest cost means of reaching foreign destinations and the best customer service options. Introduction The most significant innovation in transportation during the past 50 years has been the introduction of containerization. Container shipping has grown rapidly because it reduces the cost of port handling, improves cargo security and permits the establishment of global supply chains. As the volume of world trade carried in containers has increased, ship size and port facilities have grown, creating a virtuous cycle of declining costs and expanding service. This productivity is matched on the land side by double-stacked container trains and drayage trucks that have made containerization the preferred global door-to-door logistical system domestically and internationally.

Today, we are seeing a revival of the RDC/DMUs of the 50’s albeit in a sleeker, safer, environmentally friendlier and more powerful form. And DMUs are garnering favor now for the very same reasons they were popular then; cost advantages, operational flexibility, and reliability. Colorado Railcar, a high-end custom railcar manufacturer, has developed the first and only DMU meeting all FRA, APTA, ADA and AMTRAK requirements. As moderate volume, inter-city, suburban and rural commuter services become more important, the DMU emerges as the most promising solution. Outperforming locomotive hauled consists in flexibility, acceleration, and deceleration, DMUs provide a favorable cost/benefit ratio that is starting to be recognized nationwide. Colorado Railcar’s FRA approved steel tube construction, state-of-the-art engine/drive train and freight compatible structure make it suitable for mixed use with existing freight rail, often a crucial factor in developing cost effective service. Please review the following material on Colorado Railcar’s new DMU that is changing the way America looks at inter-city and suburban commuter rail.
