Book The Rail Abandonment Process

Book excerpt: One factor in evaluating the desirability of rail transport for high-level radioactive wastes or spent fuels is the frequency, or lack thereof, with which railroad and railroad lines have been, and are, abandoned. If DOE makes a decision to use the rail option and a line is subsequently abandoned, the choice results in increased cost, time delays and possibly safety problems: Information is therefore needed prior to the decision-making process to evaluate the desirability of the rail shipping option. One result of the abandonments mentioned herein, as well as other later abandonments, is the creation of a US rail system undergoing an evolutionary process in the 1980s as far-reaching as the changes that occurred when the industry was in its infancy a century and-a-half ago. The purpose of this paper is to examine the factors leading to some of these changes by tracing the historical development of the rail abandonment process, with particular emphasis on the rise of regional railroads, their problems in the modern era and current trends in rail abandonments as well as their effects on the southeastern United States.

Download or read book Rail Abandonments written by U S Government Accountability Office (G and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-06 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided information on railroad abandonments, focusing on: (1) the amount of mileage railroads attempted to abandon; (2) shippers' and local officials' perspectives on the abandonment process; and (3) shippers' views on the effects of rail abandonments on their operations. GAO found that: (1) railroads requested the Interstate Commerce Commission's (ICC) permission to abandon 36,900 miles of rail lines from 1970 through 1985; (2) ICC denied permission for 6.9 percent of that mileage; (3) while many factors influenced railroads' decisions to abandon rail lines, it could not determine the primary causes of abandonments; (4) protesters in abandonment proceedings were generally unaware of the various forms of assistance that ICC could provide to them; (5) protesters and state transportation officials opposed the ICC method of considering railroad opportunity costs in abandonment decisions; (6) many shippers believed that converting to other forms of transportation increased their transportation costs; and (7) abandonments have forced some shippers of bulk commodities to relocate their rail-dependent facilities.

Book Effects of Railroad Abandonment on the Modal Distribution of Traffic and on Related Costs

Download or read book Effects of Railroad Abandonment on the Modal Distribution of Traffic and on Related Costs written by H. B. Weinblatt and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Estimates were developed of the potential for rail-service termination and on the probable transport-related effects that such loss of service would have on: freight transport system; transport costs of affected rail users; resulting public-sector and private-sector investment requirements; and energy consumption. A survey was conducted of users of four sets of rail lines that had either recently lost service or could lose service in the future. Estimates of the overall effects of abandonment were developed by a computer program from an analysis of survey responses and from waybill data for shipments originating or terminating on the four sets of lines. All results are presented for these four sets of lines, and separately for sixteen commodity groups and for seven regions.
