Additional funding provided under the FRA-Administered High-Speed Intercity Passenger Rail Program
(HSIPR) is providing resources for the design and environmental review of other major backlog projects,
including the planned replacement of the 140 year old Baltimore and Potomac (B&P) tunnel south of
Baltimore and the century old Susquehanna River Bridge in Northern Maryland.
Amtrak is also investing $450 million between 2012 and 2017 under a recently awarded HSIPR grant to
Amtrak to upgrade catenary, track, signal and electric power systems on the four-track NEC main line
between New Brunswick and Trenton, New Jersey. This budget includes $7.3 million in funding from
this grant. When completed in 2017, this project will increase the top speed for high-speed train
operations from 135 mph to 160 mph and improve reliability for all passengers including intercity and
commuters on one of the most heavily trafficked sections of the Northeast Corridor.
Additional projects underway with HSIPR funding awarded to third parties but impacting the Amtrak
network, include a new third track and platform improvements at Kingston, Rhode Island and double
tracking key portions of the Springfield Line in Connecticut. Also planned is the construction of a new
grade-separated “flyover” at Harold Interlocking in New York, at the junction where Amtrak and MTA
Long Island Rail Road trains converge east of Penn Station New York; installation of a third NEC Main
Line track segment in Delaware, and upgrade of State Interlocking in Harrisburg on the Keystone Line in
Pennsylvania.
The above projects reinforce Amtrak’ s approach to SOGR which is to ensure that every project
undertaken not only replaces an aging asset and improves the reliability of existing services, but provides
a solid foundation for future growth as discussed in the following section.
