Book Description
"TRB's National Cooperative Rail Research Program (NCRRP) Report 3: Comparison of Passenger Rail Energy Consumption with Competing Modes provides tools that can be used to compare energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of intercity and commuter passenger rail with those of competing travel modes along a designated travel corridor. The report summarizes the research used to develop the model and presents a set of case study applications. A technical document and user guide for the Multi-Modal Passenger Simulation Model (MMPASSIM) and a spreadsheet tool for using and customizing the model are provided as a CD attached to this report. The Technical Document and User Guide are also available online as NCRRP Web Only Document 1."--Publisher description.
