This category is deprecated. The Greenhouse Gas Protocol methodologies for train freighting can now be found here

The category /transport/train/generic/freight/ghgp/us contains data on the greenhouse gas emissions associated with the train transportation of freight in the United States, sourced from the WRI Greenhouse Gas Protocol

To use these categories, select the train type using the type drill down option. Then, specify the distance and mass of the freight transported by setting the distance and mass profile item values. The value returned represents the total greenhouse gas emissions (CO2, CH4, N2O) associated with the specified freighting, expressed in terms of the mass of CO2 which would produce an equivalent global warming effect.
