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）联合私营铁路公司编制，旨在帮助用户直观了解由铁路线路私营所有者定义的铁路里程桩位置分布情况。数据源自2013年提交的、用于反映2012年运营情况的铁路年度报告。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。本数据集涵盖15家铁路运营商的里程桩，其中CSX运输（CSX Transportation）为最大业主，共拥有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（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（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）等多家短线铁路公司。这些里程桩覆盖肯塔基州86个县，共计112条独立铁路线路。每个点要素均包含以下属性：里程桩ID、十进制度与度分秒两种格式的经纬度、线路编号、里程桩编号、所属县名称、铁路代码以及业主信息。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基础设施规划、应急响应及交通分析的参考图层。
