Project Experience
Project: Dulles International Airport, AeroTrain Project
Location: Dulles, Virginia

Client/Owner: L.K. Comstock & Company, Inc., and the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority
Completed: 2008
Cost of Project: $1,000,000 - 5,000,000
Job Description:

The initial phase of the project involved purchasing and delivering three power distribution substations (PDS). These substations provide power to the new AeroTrain system and to its maintenance facility. The PDS were assembled and installed by six VarcoMac electricians who worked efficiently and safely, and who completed the job with no injuries. The second phase of the project involved purchasing, assembling, and installing the overhead stinger system, which allows for the AeroTrain vehicles to be powered while moving safely into and around the maintenance area.

Points of Interest: The electrical fit out for the maintenance facility was just one small part of the entire AeroTrain project. The AeroTrain will replace most of the current Mobile Lounge system that is used to transport passengers at Dulles International Airport between the Main Terminal and the Midfield Concourses. The train will operate on an underground dual track system and the maintenance facility will support the AeroTrain’s operation.
