ENSCO landed the contract to conduct research, engineering, testing, and training work at the Transportation Technology Center in March 2021, taking over operations currently handled by Association of American Railroads subsidiary TTCI [see “Digest: Developer’s agreement with Metra …,” Trains News Wire, March 10, 2021]. That transition will begin in April, with full operations in October 2022.
