Ky KYTC Rail Mileposts

Produced by KYTC in conjunction with private railroad companies. This data is to provide a general understanding of where milepoints exist as defined by the private owners of the rail lines. Derived from railroad annual reports submitted in 2013 for activity in 2012. Download GIS data: https://ky.box.com/s/qlrrk8v8qsov3j7ilk45jvlqko8crgfc This file contains 2,799 point features representing railroad mileposts across Kentucky, maintained by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC). The dataset includes mileposts from 15 railroad operators, with CSX Transportation being the dominant owner (1,676 mileposts), followed by Norfolk Southern (NS) with 441 and Paducah & Louisville Railway (PAL) with 259. Other operators include Canadian National (CN), R.J. Corman lines (RJCC, RJCM, RJCR), and several short-line railroads like Louisville & Indiana Railroad (LIRC) and Kentucky & Tennessee Railway (TKEN). The mileposts span 86 Kentucky counties across 112 unique rail lines. Each feature contains attributes including the milepost ID, latitude and longitude in both decimal degrees and degrees-minutes-seconds formats, line designation, milepost number, county name, railroad code, and owner information. A field for XY coordinate issues allows for data quality tracking. This dataset serves as a reference layer for railroad infrastructure planning, emergency response, and transportation analysis across the Commonwealth's rail network.

本数据集由肯塔基州运输内阁（Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, KYTC）联合私营铁路公司共同编制，旨在帮助用户清晰掌握由铁路线路私营所有者划定的铁路里程桩分布位置。其数据源自2013年提交的、用于统计2012年度铁路运营情况的年度报告。可下载GIS数据：https://ky.box.com/s/qlrrk8v8qsov3j7ilk45jvlqko8crgfc。本文件包含2799个点要素，用于表征肯塔基州境内的铁路里程桩，由肯塔基州运输内阁（KYTC）维护。该数据集涵盖15家铁路运营商的里程桩数据，其中CSX运输公司（CSX Transportation）为最大的数据持有方，共涉及1676个里程桩；其次为诺福克南方铁路（Norfolk Southern, NS），共计441个；帕迪尤卡与路易斯维尔铁路公司（Paducah & Louisville Railway, PAL）以259个位列第三。其余运营商包括加拿大国家铁路公司（Canadian National, CN）、R·J·科曼铁路线（R.J. Corman lines, RJCC、RJCM、RJCR），以及路易斯维尔与印第安纳铁路（Louisville & Indiana Railroad, LIRC）、肯塔基与田纳西铁路（Kentucky & Tennessee Railway, TKEN）等多家短线铁路企业。这些里程桩覆盖肯塔基州86个县，涉及112条独立铁路线路。每个点要素均包含以下属性：里程桩标识、十进制度与度分秒两种格式的经纬度、线路标识、里程桩号、所在县名称、铁路代码以及所有者信息。此外还设有XY坐标异常字段，用于开展数据质量追踪工作。本数据集可作为肯塔基州铁路网络开展基础设施规划、应急响应与交通分析的参考图层。
