REPORT TO THE CONGRESS
                                                   q3 01



BY THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL

OF THE UNITED STATES


Industry Capability To Produce

Rail And Crossties For Nationwide

Railroad Track Rehabilitation



This report discusses industry's capability to
produce rail and crossties needed to rehabil-
itate all the Nation's railroad track over 10-,
15-, and 20-year periods. The computation of
industry's capability considers its current
output and plans for expansion of produc-
tion.

Whether or not there will be enough rail and
crossties depends upon how    much sub-
standard track actually is rehabilitated and
the duration of the program.

GAO concluded if the rehabilitation time
frame is short and the need for rails and cross-
ties large enough, the Congress will have to
encourage private industry to produce a
greater volume of rail and crossties.
