    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.

  • AAPRCO & RPCA Members Meet to Develop Their Response to New Amtrak Regulations
    Volume 1 Issue 6 May 2018 AAPRCO & RPCA members meet to develop their response to new Amtrak regulations Members of the two associations met in New Orleans last week to further develop their response to new regulations being imposed by Amtrak on their members’ private railroad car businesses. Several of those vintage railroad cars were parked in New Orleans Union Station. “Most of our owners are small business people, and these new policies are forcing many of them to close or curtail their operations,” said AAPRCO President Bob Donnelley. “It is also negatively impacting their employees, suppliers and the hospitality industry that works with these private rail car trips,” added RPCA President Roger Fuehring. Currently about 200 private cars travel hundreds of thousands of miles behind regularly scheduled Amtrak trains each year. Along with special train excursions, they add nearly $10 million dollars in high margin revenue annually to the bottom line of the tax-payer subsidized passenger railroad. A 12% rate increase was imposed May 1 with just two weeks’ notice . This followed a longstanding pattern of increases taking effect annually on October 1. Cost data is being developed by economic expert Bruce Horowitz for presentation to Amtrak as are legal options. Members of both organizations are being asked to continue writing their Congress members and engaging the press. Social media is being activated and you are encouraged to follow AAPRCO on Facebook and twitter. Successes on the legislative front include this Congressional letter sent to Amtrak's president and the Board and inclusion of private car and charter train issues in recent hearings.

  • DEVELOPMENT of a HAZARD-BASED METHOD for EVALUATING the FIRE SAFETY of PASSENGER TRAINS Richard W
    Reprinted from InterFlam ‘99, 8th International Fire Science and Engineering Conference. Proceedings. June 29 - July 1, 1999, Edinburgh, Scotland. Interscience Communications Ltd., London, England, 1999 DEVELOPMENT OF A HAZARD-BASED METHOD FOR EVALUATING THE FIRE SAFETY OF PASSENGER TRAINS Richard W. Bukowski, Richard D. Peacock, Paul A. Reneke, and Jason D. Averill NIST Building and Fire Research Laboratory Gaithersburg, MD 20899 USA Stephanie H. Markos Volpe National Transportation Systems Center U.S. Department of Transportation Cambridge, MA 02142 USA ABSTRACT The fire safety of U.S. passenger rail trains currently is addressed through small-scale flammability and smoke emission tests and performance criteria promulgated by the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA). The FRA approach relies heavily on test methods applied to the primary combustible materials of rail vehicle components. As building fire safety regulations move toward performance codes, there has been interest in the application of fire hazard assessment to rail vehicles using modeling techniques. Accordingly, with FRA funding, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (Volpe Center) have been working on such an alternative approach. This effort included a systematic study of the fire performance characteristics of current rail car materials. First, the heat release and smoke production of actual materials in use were characterized in the Cone Calorimeter. Next, full-scale assembly tests of components such as seats and interior panels constructed of these same materials were conducted in a furniture calorimeter. Full-scale tests of rail cars incorporating the tested components are planned. The predictive accuracy of fire hazard modeling techniques will be assessed against the full-scale test results and the model’s utility in evaluating alternative fire safety improvements, such as automatic suppression or smoke exhaust will be demonstrated.

  • Railfan's Diary Home to Virginia from Seattle, the Long Way Or He Definitely Has Too Much Free Time on His Hands! by Jim Mixter
    Railfan's Diary Home to Virginia from Seattle, the Long Way Or He Definitely Has Too Much Free Time on his Hands! by Jim Mixter Part I-- Five years ago, Lolly and I flew out to Seattle to see my oldest relative, then 90, and we came home to Northern Virginia on the Empire Builder and the Capitol Limited, with late February weather conspiring to turn a three day, three night trip into five days and nights, though Amtrak took good care of us and we enjoyed the journey. With my uncle now 95, it was time to visit him again, though Lolly couldn’t make this trip. So, on Wednesday, October 26, I flew via United from Reagan National Airport in Washington to Chicago and then Seattle. I had traveled extensively on both United and Continental during my working career, and often earned elite frequent flyer status, but that had ended when I retired. Then, Continental merged with United. Lolly and I flew a United round trip to Houston after the merger; little did I know that this put me over the one million lifetime mile mark with the merged airline. A few days later, I received a package by FedEx with a Lucite memento and the news that I had been awarded Gold status for life!! We don’t fly much anymore, and when we do, we go the cheapest way, often Southwest or one of the start- up carriers. But I found I could fly to Seattle for $210 on United, and my Gold would enable me to upgrade to First Class 48 hours before travel if space was available.

  • Spring Break Amtrak Trip March 12-19, 2010 Day 1 – March 12, 2010 in November, the Iowa State Railroad Club Discussed The
    Spring Break Amtrak Trip March 12-19, 2010 Day 1 – March 12, 2010 In November, the Iowa State Railroad Club discussed the idea of taking a train trip for our spring club trip. Before Christmas break, we had booked tickets for a trip from Osceola, Iowa; to Sacramento, California; to Seattle, Washington; and back to Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota. In Sacramento, we would visit the California State Railroad Museum. In the end, a total of ten people went on this train trip. Participants from the club included Cliff Cessna, Brian Bauer, Ben Hucker, Nathan Smith, and Patrick Johnson. The other five participants were invited along. Ben and Cliff are currently taking a class in Railroad Engineering (CE 515) and the professor, Dr. Reg Souleyrette, expressed interest in going on the trip. As it turned out, Dr. Souleyrette and his family (wife Rosemary, two children Jackie and David, and mother-in-law “Grandma” Ruth) went on the trip as well. We departed Ames just before 6:00PM for Osceola, Iowa, where we were to catch the westbound Amtrak train #5, the California Zephyr, with a scheduled departure of 8:09PM. We arrived at the Amtrak station just after 7:00PM to find it completely packed. Several dozen people (close to 100) got on the train, most of them headed to Colorado, presumably for a spring break ski trip. The train arrived about 25 minutes late and made two separate stops to load passengers, first the sleepers, then the coaches. We finally departed at 8:49PM, 40 minutes late. Due to the limited availability of sleepers, Nathan rode in coach on this train.

  • Appendix B.Doc
    B BACKGROUND MATERIAL SECTION 2 – PLAN ADMINISTRATION GUIDELINES 2.1 Governance It is assumed for the purposes of this System Plan that the ownership of commuter rail assets throughout the State of Minnesota would be in the public interest. In other words, the citizen taxpayers of the state would own the system – specifically those commuter rail assets that are separable from the freight rail facilities, systems, equipment and/or rights-of-way that are owned by the relevant freight railroads. There are several considerations that validate the assumption of public ownership: • The public sector is the logical administrator and overseer of public transportation services provided over rights-of-way owned and operated by multiple freight rail carriers. • Public policy dictates that commuter rail service be provided within the framework of a regional and potentially statewide, publicly funded multi- modal transportation system. • The public sector is the appropriate and responsible choice as manager of the expenditure of public funding required to plan, design, construct, operate and maintain such a system. • The provision of commuter rail service is not viable without substantial public sector financing, which would not likely be available under the auspices of private ownership. The commuter rail service sponsor is the public entity or combination of entities that serves as the public’s principal agent for or overseer of such service. As such, a sponsor serves at a minimum as the lead administrator or contracting entity for all services to be provided. All commuter rail services operated throughout the nation are owned by the public sector and sponsored by one or more public agencies through a variety of intergovernmental agreements.
