Cascadia High Speed Rail, LLC
Picture
Our mission is to design, organize support, and develop a high-speed and commuter rail corridor (CHSR) in the Pacific Northwest. The CHSR corridor is between Eugene, Oregon, and Vancouver, British Columbia. This CHSR is a vital part of this new and dynamic transport system. We planned the station hubs with transit transfer to buses, light-rail, streetcars, autos, bike-ways, and pedestrians. Organize sources of funding, both private and public. 

The CHSR, LLC, is a private for-profit limited liability Company. The ± 460 mile Pacific Northwest corridor is conceptual. In part, we use the public right of way of interstate I-5. In the state of Washington, we operate in the region of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad. This corridor does require private and public lands. The PNW CHSR, LLC, will contact private parties, legislative members, mayors, governors, and others, to secure personal and federal funds to pay for this CHSR corridor development.
​
The fully electrified CHSR will highlight the Northwest as an energy-efficient system. This system is fast, reliable, safe, and multi-connected. This CHSR setup will encourage pedestrian-oriented development near its station hubs. These people moving is less stressful. This transport mode will lower CO2 emissions. Will allow the use of renewable energy. This model does allow the feedback of electric power during the train braking.
​

Throughout history, new ways of transportation have motivated development and created productive value-generating new jobs. The catalyst for the proper growth model envisioned by Oregon Governor Tom McCall and legislative leaders in 1973 was when Senate Bill 100 passed discouraging suburban sprawl in Oregon. We plan to encourage dense community growth at station areas that connect to inter-city high-speed rail service and local transportation alternatives. This educational transportation model is also for other cities in America to learn. This application will significantly reduce our dependence on oil, resolve congestion conflicts, and provide large economic benefits.

Our vision sets high standards for a state-of-the-art dedicated double-track advanced, with onboard communication and signal control system, elegant multi-modal train stations, and top-of-the-line 220 mph electric trains to connect major cities. On the same high capacity corridor, we will have 110 mph commuter trains connecting smaller suburb towns. Commuter trains obey a coordinated schedule to allow the overtake for the HSR trains at specific stations but still meet transit demands
. See train category's https://www.cascadiahighspeedrail.com/train-catagorys.html

Because of grade separation, guaranteed, uninterrupted train arrivals are achievable. The for the Japanese public provided HSR is seldom late. No fatal accidents occurred over the fifty-year of operation.

Why a Cascadia High-Speed Rail

Public transport becomes increasingly important in cities with limited space. Connecting corridors with high-speed rail between cities will improve intercity transit.
