May Update:

We are waiting for the newFederal webinarRail seriesAdministration becauseto theredeliver the link level data for 2016 so that Line Haul and Class 2/3 rail can begin. One on one meetings were held with Class 1 railroads to collect yard activity. There will be a state comment period after the data is collected from the railroads although we would ask states not to over-ride company data since it is likely the most accurate representation of yard activity.

June Update:

FRA delivered the link level activity data for 2016. Line haul calculations are tooprogressing manyquickly. oldWe addressesare planning on have a state outreach on class 2/3 rail in June and July.
