US short-line railroad modernises its track


The Nebraska, Kansas & Colorado Railway (NKCR), a short-line railway managed by Omnitrax, has received a USD 4.5 million grant from the US department of transportation. The grant will fund the renovation of more than 160 km of track in western Nebraska and eastern Colorado.

 

The project, which includes private sector matching, will install 42,595 ties and 15,990 t of ballast, and resurface the railroad’s track between Holdrege NE and Sterling CO.

 

Funding for the grant comes from the fiscal year 2020 consolidated rail infrastructure and safety improvements grant programme. (ben)
