Topic: Eastrans


In the News (Sun 29 Nov 09)

The NCRR has recently begun is already carrying out some upgrades between Raleigh and Pine Level (2 miles east of Selma) including sidings and CTC signals, allowing for 80mph operation.
That would be great for Eastrans, but everywhere east of Pine Level is a 50mph, unsignalized line.
Goldsboro Union Station would be the terminal for Eastrans on the NCRR, and a stop on the Raleigh-Wilmington intercity line, if either of those proposals ever gets off the ground.

 Raleigh MSA gets the commuter rail bug. - UrbanPlanet.org
Frangos and officials in other towns along the route see Eastrans as a way to promote economic development, encourage compact growth, and make their communities more attractive to commuters.
So far, the Eastrans movement has been led by officials in towns along the rail lines, and they say they will need help to get the trains running.
One of the cost saving features of EasTrans was that it relied on the scheduled upgrades to sections of track for use by TTA, Amtrak passenger service to Wilmington, and Amtrak Acela service.

 UrbanPlanet.org > Raleigh MSA gets the commuter rail bug.
The premise is that by giving commuters an option - other than their cars - that can compete (or actually beat) travel times by car that perhaps people would chose to live in places like downtown Wilson, Selma, Zebulon, Garner, etc. where there are inventories of underutilized buildings, homes, etc..
I really like how Eastrans has that sort of grassroots appeal and resourcefulness, whereas the TTA line smacks of the pork-barrel politics found in big city transit agencies like MTA or CTA or whatever.
The reason Eastrans, aka EastRail, doesn't go to Greenville is that there would be too many conflicts with existing freight service.

Although the N.C. Department of Transportation and the Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization underwrote a portion of the study's cost, Eastrans does not have any commitments yet for its construction costs.
Fragos is presenting the report to various groups, trying to build momentum.
