Abstract The Lubbock District of the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is planning the acquisition of railroad right-of-way from the Seagraves, Whiteface, and Lubbock Railroad Company (SWLR) as part of the U.S. 82 East-West Freeway project. During the planning process, several questions have arisen regarding the long term commercial viability of the railroad. The SWLR is faced with several situations and conditions that could adversely impact the longer-term viability of the line. The schedule and form of debt service established with the purchase of the line requires renegotiation, refinancing, or as an alternative, sale of the line.

Abstract An efficient multimodal transportation system is critical to the economic vitality of large metropolitan areas, smaller communities, and rural areas. The transportation issues in urban areas are receiving a good deal of attention, with less focus on the needs of rural areas. This research project examines the rural transportation system in Texas. It explores the demographic and economic characteristics of the state’s rural population. The history and current status of highways, roadways, public transit services, intercity buses, airports, and railroads serving rural portions of the state are examined.

  • Association of American Railroads
    ASSOCIATION OF AMERICAN RAILROADS July 26, 2020 Mr. James A. Mullen Acting Administrator Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration U.S. Department of Transportation 1200 New Jersey Avenue, S.E. Washington, D.C. 20590-0001 RE: Exemption Request from 49 C.F.R. § 395.3 - Railroad Maintenance-of-Way Drivers Responding to Unplanned Events Dear Acting Administrator Mullen: The Association of American Railroads (AAR) and American Short Line and Regional Railroad Association (ASLRRA) (the Associations), on behalf of themselves and their member railroads, request that the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) grant an exemption under 49 C.F.R. § 381.300 et seq. from the FMCSA hours of service (HOS) operation restrictions at 49 C.F.R. § 395.3(a)-(b).1 The railroads request that this exemption be granted for five years as prescribed in § 381.300(b). This request covers approximately 20,000 individual drivers and 11,000 commercial motor vehicles (CMVs). As background, the Associations submitted a similar exemption request from § 395.3 requirements on October 11, 2018, at Docket No. FMCSA-2018-0367, requesting relief from FMCSA HOS restrictions for railroad Maintenance-of-way (MOW) employees responding to unplanned events (Attachment 1). On February 21, 2020, the Associations withdrew that pending request (Attachment 2). This revised exemption request addresses the same topic as the Associations’ October 2018 petition, but requests a narrower exemption which parallels that recently granted by FMCSA to other railroad industry groups at Docket No. FMCSA-2019- 1 AAR is a trade association whose membership includes freight railroads that operate 83% of the line-haul mileage, employ 95% of the workers, and account for 97% of the freight revenues of all railroads in the United States; and passenger railroads that operate intercity passenger trains and provide commuter rail service.
