Abstract	This 2000 Montana Rail Plan Update is a comprehensive update of the State Rail Plan. The purpose of this update is to review the State's role in rail planning, retain eligibility for Local Rail Freight Assistance (LRFA) funding, update the description of Montana's rail system and examine the feasibility of new passenger rail service. This State Rail Plan Update is not the policy plan. Rather, TranPlan 21, Montana's statewide multimodal plan, is the policy plan. TranPlan 21, updated with an annual report containing systems characteristics, policy goals and action status addresses all transportation modes including passenger rail and freight rail. This plan describes the current state of the Montana rail system, outlines rail planning issues and makes recommendations. 4 Tables, 4 maps, 1 figure, appendix, 100p.
