County Yard
200px, County yard County Yard is a rail yard complex comprising Adams Yard, Delco Lead, and the eponymous County Yard along the Northeast Corridor (NEC). The complex straddles the New Brunswick and North Brunswick border in Central New Jersey. Originally developed by the Pennsylvania Railroad, it is owned by Amtrak. The New Jersey Transit Rail Operations (NJT) Jersey Avenue Station (at milepoint 34.4) served by its Northeast Corridor Line, is just south of County Yard, and just north of Adams Yard and Delco Lead. In 2014, NJT began a project to upgrade the yard and build a "train haven" and re-inspection station. County Yard will be able to store 132 rail cars. The aforementioned Delco Lead, further south along NEC, would be expanded to five additional tracks able to park 312 rail cars and a service and inspection facility would be built to return equipment to service. History County Yard was originally part of the Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) and is located where the Mi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

List Of New Jersey Transit Stations
NJ Transit Rail Operations provides passenger service on 12 lines at a total of 166 stations, some operated in conjunction with Amtrak and Metro-North Railroad (MNR). NJ Transit Rail Operations (NJTR) was established by NJ Transit (NJT) to run commuter rail operations in New Jersey. In January 1983 it took over operation from Conrail, which itself had been formed in 1976 through the merger of a number of financially troubled railroads and had been operating commuter railroad service under contract from the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT). Soon after its creation, NJT commissioned a survey of operating stations, 53 of which were eventually nominated and listed on the state and federal registers of historic places in 1984. Since 2009, NJT is a stakeholder in the state's "smart growth" transit-oriented development initiatives, its transit hubs forming the basis for transit villages.

High-speed Rail In The United States
Plans for high-speed rail in the United States date back to the High-Speed Ground Transportation Act of 1965. Various state and federal proposals have followed. Despite being one of the world's first countries to get high-speed trains (the Metroliner service in 1969), it failed to spread. Definitions of what constitutes high-speed rail vary, including a range of speeds over and dedicated rail lines. Inter-city rail with top speeds between is sometimes referred to in the United States as higher-speed rail. Amtrak's ''Acela'', which reaches over of track, is the US's only high-speed rail service. Acela trains will reach top speeds of when new trains enter service, and in coming years. Other services reaching are prevalent in the US, and are officially classified as higher-speed rail. , the California High-Speed Rail Authority is working on the California High-Speed Rail project and construction is under way on sections traversing the Central Valley.

It is headed by the secretary of transportation, who reports directly to the President of the United States and is a member of the president's Cabinet.
