DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
Federal Railroad Administration
[Docket Number FRA–2017–0023]
Notice of Application for Approval of
Discontinuance or Modification of a
Railroad Signal System
Under part 235 of Title 49 of the Code
of Federal Regulations and 49 U.S.C.
20502(a), this document provides the
public notice that on March 10, 2017,
National Railroad Passenger Corporation
(Amtrak) petitioned the Federal
Railroad Administration (FRA) seeking
approval for the discontinuance or
modification of a signal system. FRA
assigned the petition Docket Number
FRA–2017–0023.
Applicant: National Railroad
Passenger Corporation, Mr. Nicholas J.
Croce III, Deputy Chief Engineer C&S,
Acting, 2995 Market Street,
Philadelphia, PA 19104.
Amtrak seeks to remove all four
derails, one for each track in each
direction at the Pelham Bay movable
bridge interlocking, located at milepost
15.5 on Amtrak’s Northeast Corridor,
New York Division, Hutchinson River,
Bronx, NY.
Each of the interlocking home signals
protecting these derails, and the
associated movable bridge, are equipped
with the Northeast Corridor 100Hz
coded cab signal system with speed
control (also known as Automatic Train
Control (ATC)). The interlocking is also
equipped with Advanced Civil Speed
Enforcement System (ACSES). The
derails have been rendered obsolete by
PO 00000
Frm 00147
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
ATC and ACSES technologies, which
enforce slowing and stopping of trains
prior to passing the interlocking home
signals in stop position, rather than
derail the train after it passes the stop
signal.
The reason for removal of the derails
is to eliminate maintenance and
operation of obsolete hardware no
longer needed, and to reduce delays to
trains caused by failures of the derails.
A copy of the petition, as well as any
written communications concerning the
petition, is available for review online at
www.regulations.gov and in person at
the U.S. Department of Transportation’s
(DOT) Docket Operations Facility, 1200

scheduling a public hearing in
connection with these proceedings since
the facts do not appear to warrant a
hearing. If any interested parties desire
an opportunity for oral comment and a
public hearing, they should notify FRA,
in writing, before the end of the
comment period and specify the basis
for their request.
