Specifically, OERM seeks a waiver from the requirements of Appendix B to 49 CFR part 232 for passenger car maintenance requirements. See also 49 CFR 232.17(b)(2). OERM is a non-profit corporation that operates a historical and excursion train known as the Southern California Railway Museum, Inc. on its own tracks as a Non-insular Tourist Railway. Occasionally, OERM operates off of its line and onto the San Jacinto Industrial Spur for approximately 1⁄4 mile in order to reach the Historic Perris Depot. As the San Jacinto Industrial Spur is part of the general system of transportation, compliance with part 232 is required. Because of the expense, mileage, low speed operation, and frequency of use of the four passenger cars for which relief is requested, OERM is requesting a 5year waiver and increased time cycle for the servicing of the brake valves attached to these passenger cars. Interested parties are invited to participate in these proceedings by submitting written views, data, or comments. FRA does not anticipate scheduling a public hearing in connection with these proceedings since the facts do not appear to warrant a hearing. If any interested party desires an opportunity for oral comment, they should notify FRA, in writing, before the end of the comment period and specify the basis for their request.

Western Maryland Scenic Railroad emcdonald on DSK2BSOYB1PROD with NOTICES [Waiver Petition Docket Number FRA–2010– 0089] The Western Maryland Scenic Railroad (WMSR) petitioned FRA for relief from the requirements of CFR 223.15 Existing passenger cars, and § 223.13 Existing cabooses, for nine (9) passenger cars, and one (1) caboose. Specifically, passenger cars WMSR 200, 540, 541, 726, 844, 846, 850, 851, and 855, which were built between 1946, and 1954, and used by Class I Railroads until their retirement in long distance passenger service. Also, the cars are not equipped with the required number of emergency windows exits. The caboose, WMSR 1906, was built in 1969. Since VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:34 Sep 30, 2010 Jkt 220001 FRA’s long-standing definition of ‘‘antiquated’’ is being built prior to the end of World War II, even though this equipment is used on in tourist/ excursion/educational service, relief from the Federal safety glazing requirements is required. WMSR operates this equipment primarily on trackage between Cumberland, and Frostburg, Maryland. A portion of the trackage is leased from the CSX Transportation Inc. (CSXT), in Ridgeley, WV, where the railroad’s maintenance, storage, and repair facilities are located. WMSR is the only operator/tenant of this least trackage and acreage. The above referenced passenger cars and caboose have occasionally been leased/loaned for excursion service purposes to other organizations, including CSXT, such as Charity Train, Masters Golf Tournament, and the Kentucky Derby Train. In addition, WMSR has been requested to provide excursion passenger equipment for an anniversary celebration on the South Branch Valley Railroad later in 2010. WMSR tourist railroad operations are conducted at speeds of 20 mph, but while the equipment is on loan/lease to other operators, the operating speeds may differ. There have been no reported incidents of stoning or acts of vandalism against the excursion trains. WMSR believes that the cost to retrofit these cars is not economically feasible, would impose a serious financial hardship to the non-profit organization, and would jeopardize their ability to utilize the equipment in its current service.
