Annual Membership Renewal Arkansas-Boston Mountains Chapter membership: To renew for 2020 at $12 per person, either pay at the February meeting, or send it to Malcolm Cleaveland at ABMT Chapter, National Railway Historical Soc., PO Box 1303, Springdale, AR 72765-1303. Please make checks payable to ABMT NRHS. National Membership: We are having a major problem with the company that services our database and will probably have to make a change this year. In the meantime they have made it very difficult to do an on-line renewal so, if you still need to renew, it is probably best to do it by mailing a check for $50.00 (rate for one person) to: Membership, PO Box 31074, St Louis MO 63131-0074. Thanks! Hugh R. Harris, Na- tional Membership Administrator. 2. Need Volunteer to Transport Train Layout for Feb. 29 Show At the January meeting, Al Kaeppel asked for someone to transport the four 4’x4’ train boards inside of a vehicle, not exposed to the elements, to and from the Saturday, February 29 train show at the Benton County Fairgrounds. Perhaps pick the up at the A&M Museum Friday afternoon, return them Saturday af- ternoon. There are also four large plastic tubs, and maybe four folding tables, too. Unless someone has a spacious vehicle, may required two. To inquire further, please contact Al 479-927-3163. Without transport, the Chapter will not be present at the show. 3. Need Someone to Preside at Our March Meeting Ladies and Gents: There is a very high probability that I will not be at the March meeting. I am hoping that our VP, Larry Cain, will be there. In the event he is not able to conduct the meeting, next in line is Malcolm, but he may not be there. After him is Roseann. If none of the above are in attendance, we will need someone to run the show and take the minutes of the meeting. Please be willing to step up and help. Thanks, Gary 4. How You Can Contribute to the Scrambler Do you have photos or information about the trains and operations on the south end of the A&M – Fayetteville to Ft Smith – past or present? Let the editor know – your information and help can contribute to an article documenting and recording this history in the Scrambler. 5. News from the Fort Smith Trolley Museum “Trolley Report” in their quarterly Fall 2019 newsletter ... There have been ongoing problems with derailments at a curve by the Ft Smith National Cemetery. An inspection revealed rotted ties and out-of-gauge track. After repairs, the derailments have stopped. Volunteers meet at the Museum on Tuesday nights from 6 to 10 pm, to work on restoration. The Museum provides both tools and instructors. The Museum is in need of railroad memorabilia, model railroad equipment, a drinking fountain, a drill press, a paper folding machine, and Ft Smith City Directories before 1965 and after 1993. - continued next page - THE ARKANSAS SCRAMBLER February 2020 Page 5 Chapter & General News (continued) 6. Former Rock Island Line a Step Closer to a Rail-To-Trail In December 2019, representatives of Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MDNR), with Could Not Have Said It Better elected officials and others, held a signing in Eldon, The Rock Island was one of four companies running Missouri, to mark an agreement between MDNR and between St Louis and Kansas City, the others being the Missouri Central Railroad Company to rail-bank Missouri Pacific, Wabash, and Chicago & Alton (later the rail line, with the intent to turn it into a trail for Gulf, Mobile & Ohio). Routed through less populated public use. The route traverses 10 Missouri counties and more rugged terrain, the Rock Island’s route was in two segments: (1) between milepost 215.325, near probably the least desirable of the four. Windsor, and milepost 71.6 near Beaufoti; and (2) During the late-May to early-June 2018 Conference between mileposts 263.5 and 262.906 near Pleasant held jointly with the Railway & Locomotive Historical Hill. Along with the existing 240-mile Katy Trail Society and other rail history groups in St Louis, one and other portions of the former Rock Island line speaker quipped that as their rail system was expand- corridor, this could ultimately lead to a 400-mile rail ing, the Rock Island wanted to reach St Louis in the -to-trail loop in central Missouri. worst way, and they did. The east end of this former Rock Island line con- tinues in operation as the Central Midland Railway. 7. Paris Moves 10-Wheeler from Park to Museum Bob Stark forwarded a story from the Paris, Ark., Resident Press. In January, a 4-6-0 and tender on display for over half a century at the Paris City Park were hauled over city streets to the Paris/Logan Coun- ty Coal Miners Museum.

  • Proposal for Operator of Rail Service from Progressive Rail
    January 4, 2018 Proposal for Operator of Rail Service Mr. Luis Pavel Mendez Deputy Director Santa Cruz County Regional Transportation Commission 1523 Pacific Avenue Santa Cruz, CA 95060-3911 Dear Mr. Mendez, Progressive Rail Incorporated (“PGR”) is pleased to submit a Proposal for Operator of Rail Service in accordance with the Santa Cruz County Regional Transportation Commission (“SCCRTC”) Request For Proposals (“RFP”) dated December 8, 2017. Please accept this letter as our Transmittal Letter and the enclosed booklet (“Booklet”) as a detailed supplement of information that summarizes our vision and service plan for the Santa Cruz Branch Line. In preparation for this submittal, we have performed the following activities: • An onsite inspection of the entire 32 miles of rail; • An onsite inspection of all the bridges on the Branch Line with the assistance of A.R.E., an Irvine-based railroad bridge engineering firm; • An onsite inspection of all the railroad crossings with a goal to work with the municipalities to evaluate Locomotive Horn Signal Quiet Zones from Grove Lane Crossing in Capitola to Swift Avenue in Santa Cruz; • A meeting with the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk management to explore partnerships for passenger excursions; • A meeting with Ms. Christina Watson of the Transit Authority for Monterrey County to understand their plans and progress in developing a fast rail corridor to Salinas and how the Santa Cruz Branch Line might benefit from their experiences and ongoing efforts; • Meetings with potential freight customers in Watsonville; • Engaging PGR’s existing customers within its six-state network that would consider locating on the Santa Cruz Branch Line; • Given that PGR is already a major handling carrier for Union Pacific, meeting with representatives to advise them of our aspirations to become the Operator of the Branch Line; and • Retaining two rail advisors, one of whom is very familiar with the Branch Line operations, to meet with train manufacturers to explore environmentally friendly and California-compliant locomotives and train sets.

    Appendix A: Assets and Freight Flow Technical Memo Appendix A- ASSETS AND FREIGHT FLOW TECHNICAL MEMO Missouri State Freight Plan | Appendix A | Page 1 Appendix A: Assets and Freight Flow Technical Memo Assets and Freight Flow This technical memorandum provides an inventory of the existing freight assets and freight flows. The inventory includes all modes of freight transportation; highway, rail, air, water, and pipeline. It also includes an inventory of intermodal facilities where the different modes interact to exchange freight and the freight generators located within Missouri. For each of the modes of transportation a discussion of freight flows and forecasts is provided. Introduction Freight movement provides many economic benefits to the State through the shipment of parts to support production done in Missouri by Missouri workers, as well as, through the shipment of finished products moved both into and out of the State. The economic vitality of the State relies on transportation of goods into, out of, within, and to a lesser extent through Missouri to support jobs and growth throughout the State. The production and transporting goods are key elements to the economic vitality of Missouri. The top ten occupations in Missouri for 2012 are shown in Table A-1.
