passenger trains on Twentieth Annual Conference
freight railroads October 15 & 16, 2013 / Washington Marriott Hotel / Washington, D.C.
FINDING common ground
presented by
North America’s freight rail system plays host to a growing network of regional, intercity, and light rail passenger services. Now, high- and higher-speed have been added to the mix. Passenger and freight rail interests must deal with issues of compensation, liability, operational and grade crossing safety, signaling and train control requirements, capacity constraints, and maintaining the integrity of freight service. Finding common ground can be problematic.
