Comparing future train technologies and fuels requires a thorough assessment of availability, reliability, safety, affordability, social acceptability and sustainability. This report does not aim so broadly, but focuses on energy-efficiency, renewability and greenhouse gas performance to assess the sustainability performance of a number of technologies.

The goals of this North I‐25 EIS study are to update three items of the commuter rail element in the document. Capital costs will be updated to reflect 2014 dollars and FTA/FRA standard cost categories. The Operational Plan will be updated based on identified changes, compared to prior assumptions/findings, for track, intersections, and right‐of‐way (ROW). A new corridor wide ROW analysis. This study will not be re‐opening the project alternatives and intends on keeping the preferred commuter rail alternative mentioned above. The following are not included in the scope of the study: Create an implementation plan and implementation schedule, Provide travel forecasting, Estimate ridership, Provide a financial analysis, or Hold formal public meetings. New funding sources will be needed to create an implementation plan and a financial plan. During the 2009 EIS, there were many projects that were assumed to be carried through. Some of these projects have been completed, others have been invalidated. Since the completion of the 2009 EIS, the following conditions/assumptions have changed that will affect this current study: The Colorado Rail Relocation Study looked at the possibility of the State of Colorado acquiring the existing BNSF track along U.S.

    tours on tracks 1. Peloponnese tour (4 days) Since 2012 TRAINOSE, the Greek railway operator, has been actively involved in the development of rail tours aiming at highlighting the natural beauties of Greece and the unique sceneries a traveler experiences aboard our trains. Passengers have the opportunity of visiting places like the archaeological site of Olympia, the old city of Kiparissia, the archaeological site of Ancient Messene, the modern city of Kalamata, but also Nafplion, first capital of Greece in the 19th century, the Prehistoric Acropolis of Mycenae and numerous other places. In the Peloponnese we organize tours - on a demand basis - with modern rolling stock (RailBus), as well as with other types of rolling stock, such as Diesel ALCO, Vulcan, Ganz Mavag Rail cars etc. Prices depend on the type of rolling stock the customer prefers and the stations/towns the train calls.

(DLR) Institut für Fahrzeugkonzepte Masterthesis October 2019 3 i ABSTRACT In recent years, the concept of decarbonizing the transport sector using wind-based hydrogen as a means of sector-coupling has been widely discussed. In Germany, after 2020, wind park operators will gradually cease to receive subsidies for a large share of the installed onshore wind power, as funding is limited to 20 years. For many windmills it is unclear, whether a profitable operation without funding is possible. Furthermore, the remaining diesel operated rail passenger service is ought to be largely decarbonized. Since track-side electrification is expensive and associated with complex and time-consuming approval procedures, using fuel-cell powered trains could be a viable alternative. Whether it is possible to use energy from track-adjacent aged windmills to provide hydrogen for these trains is currently in discussion. In this study I assess the regional potential of on-site wind-based hydrogen as a substitute to diesel in regional rail transport using a GIS approach in conjunction with a site-level cost model.
