Railroads
Illinois has more than 7,200 miles of railroad track which is the 2nd largest rail system of any state in the nation. About 500 million tons (1 trillion pounds) of freight moves on Illinois’ rail system each year which is the most of any state in the nation. There are over 39 railroad companies that operate trains in and through Illinois. Illinois has 11,192 public highway-rail crossings. Of these 8,467 are public at grade crossings and 2,725 are public grade separated (bridge) crossings.
The Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC) is the state agency with regulatory authority over railroads in Illinois. The ICC employs rail safety engineers and federally certified railroad inspectors. The ICC’s rail safety staff responds to inquiries and complaints and conducts specialized inspections of railroad tracks, rail operations, hazardous material transportation and grade crossing signal systems. The ICC also monitors railroad rights-of-way and grade crossing surface conditions, as well as visibility obstructions at rail crossings.
