	Passenger Rail Car Accessibility and Terms and Conditions of Carriage by Rail of Persons with Disabilities
		A rail carrier is not required to carry one of these large mobility aids if it cannot be transported on the same train on which the person is travelling because that train does not have either a passenger rail car or a baggage car that can accommodate it.
		If a person identifies the nature of their disability, a rail carrier should, before assigning a passenger seat or room to them, inform the person of those passenger seats or rooms in the passenger rail car to be used that are considered to be most accessible for them.
		A rail carrier should accept the determination made by or on behalf of a person with a disability that the person does not require any extraordinary service during a trip, that is, does not need any service related to a disability that is not usually provided by the carrier.

	Linking a Nation: Chapter 1 - Australia and the Industrial Revolution in Transport and Communications (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		This pastoral wealth demanded transport and communication facilities, but these could be rudimentary, since wool was very light in relation to its value, so could support the heavy costs of overland transport by bullock dray.

		The first proposition of the railway company was to transport the stone from the quarry to the tidewater at 50 cents per ton, and from thence by lighters to the wharf at Charlestown, at 40 cents, but the contract fixed the price at 75 cents per ton for the whole distance.
		This was extended until the rail way enterprise became altogether subordinate to the quarrying in terests of the company, as will be learned by reading an account of their business printed in another part of this history.

		2.10 States have from time to time made significant investments in their total rail networks,[14] but overall it appears that most of their efforts are concentrated on maintaining capital city passenger services where the political pressure is highest.
		It is well-documented that the rail system in Australia has been under-funded for a long time and its role in handling the nation’s freight task has been declining relative to road.
		Rail has the potential to substantially increase its share of the freight task if significant improvements are made to rail infrastructure and operational practices are modernised.

		One of his first improvements of this sort was a gravity railway, so arranged that the loaded cars, running down to the river by their own weight, furnished the power to draw the empty cars to the summit again by cable.
		They declared that the plan to carry the rails over the surveyed route across Chat Moss, a wide morass, was impossible; and furthermore, that no locomotive could make headway against the high winds which at times prevailed in that region.

		The new route transported powder and lead from Colbert's Ferry, where the Natchez Trace crosses the Tennessee River, to the home of John Pitchlynn on the Tombigbee River.
		Although use of this route ended after Mobile was annexed by the United States in April 1813, Gaines's use of it had allowed the Choctaw Trading House to continue stocking the powder and lead so important for maintaining good relations with the Choctaws and ensured the security of the surrounding American settlements.
		Furthermore, because of the experience that Gaines had acquired in his factorship and in his service in establishing his overland supply route, he knew that ease of transportation would be a vital issue in the development of the border areas between Mississippi and Alabama.

		The railroad marked a significant shift in transportation modes and the Lower Susquehanna Region was at the forefront of this new innovation.
		Both lines were heavily used for passenger and freight transport and a network of railroad lines developed along the Susquehanna River and its tributaries including the Maryland and Pennsylvania Railroad (along Muddy Creek) and the Octoraro Railroad (along Octoraro Creek and the Susquehanna River).
		During the war, it was understood that the extensive transportation networks of Maryland would be necessary for a Union victory, thus the history of the Lower Susquehanna Region during this time was a popular legend of tragedy and the Civil War in miniature.
