DOT/FRA RIN: 2130-AA89 Publication ID: Fall 1995 
Title: Locomotive Crashworthiness and Working Conditions 
Abstract: FRA's safety regulations do not address the crashworthiness of locomotives or working conditions on locomotives. Under the Rail Safety Enforcement and Review Act (1992), FRA is required to study the need for additional rules to address those issues. Rules are to be adopted if FRA determines that they are needed. This project is considered significant because of substantial public interest.
