Taking on freight rail

Transit agency rejects gas tanker storage, a big moneymaker


The North Bay’s passenger rail system is moving into freight operations, and one of the governing board’s first decisions about the scope of those operations is likely to make them a money loser, at least at the outset.

Board members for Sonoma-Marin Area Rail Transit voted unanimously Jan. 5 to launch an in-house freight rail division, while at the same time reaffirming their commitment to abandon the storage of gas tanker cars near Schellville, a decision that will cost $500,000 a year in revenue.
