- W582487347 abstract "As Class I railroads have reduced the size of their systems, short line railroads have acquired many miles of rural branchline that would otherwise have been abandoned. Short lines currently operate 25% of total U.S. rail mileage. The short line industry has experienced rapid growth since 1980 and likely will continue to grow at a rapid rate given the stated plans of Class I railroads to spinoff parts of their systems to short line operators in the 1990s. As a result, shipper groups and potential short line operators are likely to request state financial assistance. The objectives of the study are as follows: (1) Determine if short line railroads are a viable transportation alternative to abandonment; (2) Identify the key factors that determine short line success or failure; and (3) Compile a profile of a successful short line railroad to help guide the allocation of state financial assistance. A profile for a profitable short line railroad was developed. State financial assistance is recommended and program components presented. A list of additional recommended public policies is also presented. This study concluded that in the current environment, short line railroads are a viable transportation alternative. However, the long term financial survivability of short line railroads as an industry is not assured. This revised report contains data received after the original report was printed. There was no significant change in the conclusions established from the study." @default.
