Abstract The impacts of extending electrification on the National Railroad Passenger Corporation's (Amtrak) Northeast Corridor (NEC) from New Haven, Connecticut to Boston, Massachusetts are of direct concern to the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA). To improve rail service and increase ridership between New York and Boston, Amtrak proposes the electrification of the NEC main line between New Haven, CT and Boston, MA using an overhead 2 x 25,000 volt - 60 hertz power system. This volume consists of maps depicting all areas of study, including the right-of-way (ROW), all facilities sites under consideration, and other adjacent areas that may be affected by project impacts. These maps also record site specific environmental data for the technical studies including natural, manmade and cultural features.
