	Railway Technology - Hong Kong East Rail Heavy Rail Network operated by Kowloon-Canton Railway Corporation, China
		As East Rail also carries a substantial amount of long-distance traffic between Hong Kong, Lo Wu, Shanghai and Beijing, it is regarded as an important trunk route on the Chinese railway system.
		Expansion of Hong Kong's rail network is driven by a massive increase in population and business activity, not halted by the handing over of the province from British to Chinese control.
		East Rail has changed from a railway serving primarily longer distance travellers going into the Mainland into a major mass transit commuter railway.

	Manila Light Rail Transit System - tScholars.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		The Manila Light Rail Transit System, popularly known as the LRT, is the main metropolitan rail system serving the Metro Manila area in the Philippines.
		Although the system is referred to as a "light rail transit system", some would argue the system is more akin to a rapid transit (metro) system.

	Op-Ed Column: Go east, light rail
		PAT officials have admitted that light rail to the east is a good alternative but suggest that they lack the support.
		In converting the East Busway -- which is fast approaching the point that it will require major reinvestment to maintain its usability -- we envision an LRT system that would extend from the Downtown subway along the railroad corridor to Keystone Commons in East Pittsburgh.
		Light rail would also accommodate the Main Line Park concept (MLP) that proposes the shared use of the corridor for the creation of a tree-lined bicycle trail and series of small community parks for the eastern communities from East Liberty through Wilkinsburg, Turtle Creek and beyond.

		It is expected that a connecting rail will be included in a replacement Tappan Zee Bridge, as the best alternative to alleviating congestion on the corridor.
		In a recent report from the Michael Gallis Associates, it is stated that the area east of the Hudson is in danger of becoming a giant cul de sac, or dead end, in the global network.
		In order for the Lower Hudson Valley to be a vibrant and healthy region there must be an appealing and workable rail network that serves the diverse population of all counties in the region, including New York City.

	West-east rail link suggested
		Creating commuter rail service to link West Shore communities to downtown Cleveland would be "marginally feasible," said consultants hired by a regional planning agency to study a multi-route rail system for Northeast Ohio.
		The commuter rail station in downtown Cleveland would be built just south of North Coast Harbor, close to the existing Amtrak depot.
		While most residents at the first public hearing said they supported the idea of commuter rail, they questioned why a subsidy would be needed for the trains, or if highway traffic was bad enough to warrant the trains.

	Students Track Toxicants in East Deerfield Rail Yard Fellows Program
		She hopes her map will inspire conversation among Deerfield community residents and former rail workers and that it will be refined as a result of that dialogue.
		Their project was to help Rose reconstruct the history of the East Deerfield rail yard, where six oil spills are currently being monitored by the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), and to consider whether the yard presents environmental or health problems for current populations or future development.
		Their work shows that contaminants spilled or improperly stored at the rail yard could move quickly through the soil and into the rivers, an important point to make to authorities considering testing soil or water samples for toxicity.

	Rail Travelogue: Matt Melzer's East Coast Rail Journey
		The rail vehicles used were built by Breda Construzionni Ferroviarre, the same company that built the subway cars for Los Angeles.
		Most old rail cars not equipped with retention tanks advise passengers, for obvious reasons, to not flush the toilet while the train is at a platform.
		Not long after the train departs East Glacier Park, the scenery starts to become quite spectacular as the train begins to climb steep grades, hugging the hills as it goes deeper into the park lands.

	Merchants’ fears of light rail lessened \| EastValleyTribune.com
		East Valley merchants still may not like the lightrail line that’s planned on Apache Boulevard in Tempe and Main Street in Mesa, but they’re slowly coming to accept it.
		Though the rail line is supposed to deliver new life to the mostly blighted 20 miles along its path, some of the roughly 220 merchants along the East Valley rail segment have long feared its three-year construction schedule will only bring economic ruin.
		Hale and other Salt Lake merchants initially fought an extension of the rail system because earlier construction was so poorly managed and disruptive that merchants lost as much as half their business.

	Middle East rail network coming soon \| MEED
		A Middle East rail network, linking all major capitals across the region could soon become a reality, as more governments look toward developing rail infrastructure as a means of reducing traffic congestion and pollution, and increasing trade and tourism links, according to rail experts.
		In the Middle East, a Gulf-wide railway could be the beginning of a similar initiative here, that would eventually see all major capitals and cities connected by rail,' said Sabouni, who will deliver the keynote speech on the future of an Arab rail network, at the upcoming Middle East Rail Projects Conference in Dubai.
		Experts predict that a region-wide rail network would make trade between states more efficient, and cost effective, as well as generate increased tourism for the entire Middle East, with travelers from inside and outside the region using rail travel to visit different countries.
