inspector before being repaired using
the drop table on a track designated for
minor repairs. CP will continue to
perform SCABTs as required in sections
232.305(b)(1), (4), (5) and 232.305(c)–(e).
CPR states that this request is consistent
with 49 CFR 232.303(a)(2) which allows
for an exception to the definition of
‘‘major repair’’ for wheels changed on
an intermodal loading ramp. Similar to
changing wheels on an intermodal
loading ramp, wheel replacements using
a drop table are completed in a short
period of time and with no disruption
to the other car components, including
the brake system. The wheelset changeout takes an average of 0.337 personhours. Besides the drop table, the repair
requires only the use of hand tools and
does not require additional specialized
equipment.
A copy of the petition, as well as any
