Re: FRA Jurisdiction outside of National Network

Posted by northshore on Sat Dec 12 13:25:12 2020, in response to FRA Jurisdiction outside of National Network, posted by NIMBYkiller on Tue Dec 1 19:51:13 2020.

The SIRT came under FRA regulations since it was part of the Baltimore & Ohio interstate network,
When SIRTOA was sent up under the MTA, it was an Operating Authority, providing passenger service over the B & O-owned trackage. Therefore SITOA cars needed to conform to FRA Standards. When the new R-44 cars were built, they were built with modification the comply to the FRA standards.
Since the B&O no longer owns the ROW, FRA requirements no longer apply.
