The four papers in this record deal with the development of rail transit. They include a discussion of characteristics, innovations, and trends in the family of rail systems such as streetcar, light rail, rapid transit, and regional rail; an examination of economic relationships among demand-actuated, schedule-route, and rapid transit services to determine where the operating economy justifies intensive capital investment in permanent facilities; a discussion of energy optimization for rail public transit systems from the viewpoint of an integrated systems approach, which considers the interaction of all the major subsystems of a total rapid transit system rather than each subsystem independently; and a discussion of the energy requirements of the Bay Area Rapid Transit system in 5 areas: traction energy; station energy; maintenance energy; construction energy; and impact energy.
