This book was released on 1996 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The overall goals of the grain train project are to preserve rail service in a multimodal system, provide additional rail cars to alleviate existing shortages, and to redistribute energy rebate funds in accordance with acknowledged constraints. The general purpose is to analyze and evaluate the operation of the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT)-purchased covered hopper rail cars for service to shippers in eastern Washington during calendar year 1995. Specific objectives are to evaluate: the average loads of grain transported per car; where the program assists in fulfilling WSDOT's mission as a provider of multimodal freight transportation options; car income and expenses; grain car inventory control; capital and operating costs of the grain car program; cost savings from road impacts; and the impact of the project on preserving rail service and consequent benefits to shippers and taxpayers. A final specific objective is to determine the amount of energy saved through the use of the cars. This report details the project and its results.

Book Impact of Kansas Grain Transportation on Kansas Highway Damage Costs

Download or read book Impact of Kansas Grain Transportation on Kansas Highway Damage Costs written by Michael W. Babcock and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Changes have occurred in the Kansas grain transportation system that have increased trucking of grain. Class I railroads in Kansas have encouraged the construction of unit train (100 or more railcars) loading facilities on their main lines. Kansas farmers will truck their grain a much greater distance to obtain the higher grain price at the unit train loading location. Farmers will bypass the local grain elevator, and the shortline railroad serving it, and truck the grain to the unit train loading facility, resulting in increased road damage costs. The increasing size of grain railcars threatens to reduce shortline railroad grain traffic and increase grain trucking. The new super jumbo covered hopper cars have loaded weights of 286,000 pounds, much higher than most of the shortline railroad track in Kansas is capable of handling. As the percentage of the grain car fleet that can move on shortlines declines, grain shippers will have no alternative but to truck their grain to terminal markets.
