North American Rail Network Lines - CPKC View

The North American Rail Network (NARN) Rail Lines: CPKC View dataset is from the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) and is part of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)/Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) National Transportation Atlas Database (NTAD). This dataset is a subset of the NARN Rail Lines dataset that represents the ownership and trackage rights for the Class I railroad “Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC).” PLEASE NOTE: “Canadian Pacific (CP)” and “Kansas City Southern (KCS)” have merged per a business prospective to form “Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC).” However, this is not yet reflected in the North American Rail Network (NARN) until the dispatching is unified. This view layer has combined “Canadian Pacific (CP)” and “Kansas City Southern (KCS)” per their ownerships and trackage rights as stipulated in the NARN. It is derived from the North American Rail Network (NARN) Lines dataset, and for more information please consult, https://doi.org/10.21949/1519415. The NARN Rail Lines dataset is a database that provides ownership, trackage rights, type, passenger, STRACNET, and geographic reference for North America's railway system at 1:24,000 or better within the United States. The data set covers all 50 States, the District of Columbia, Mexico, and Canada. A data dictionary, or other source of attribute information, is accessible at https://doi.org/10.21949/1528950
