BILLING CODE 4910–06–P
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
Federal Railroad Administration
[Docket Number FRA–2018–0084]
Petition for Waiver of Compliance
Under part 211 of Title 49 of the Code
of Federal Regulations (CFR), this
provides the public notice that on
October 5, 2018, the Texas State
Railroad (TSR), petitioned the Federal
Railroad Administration (FRA) for a
waiver of compliance from certain
provisions of the Federal railroad safety
regulations contained at 49 CFR
240.201(d). FRA assigned the petition
Docket Number FRA–2018–0084.
TSR seeks a waiver of compliance
from 49 CFR 240.201(d) which states,
‘‘After December 31, 1991, no railroad
shall permit or require any person to
operate a locomotive in any class of
locomotive or train service unless that
person has been certified as a qualified
locomotive engineer and issued a
certificate that complies with
§ 240.223.’’ TSR desires to conduct a
‘‘Hands on the Throttle Program,’’
which would allow ‘‘non-certified’’
individuals to operate a locomotive as a
‘‘Student Locomotive Engineer.’’
TSR owns and operates a fleet of
steam and historic diesel locomotives
and desires to provide non-certified
persons the opportunity to operate these

locomotives. As proposed, TSR will
verify that each participant will be at
least 18 years old and possesses a valid
state-issued motor vehicle license, and
will have a certified locomotive
engineer in the cab of the locomotive at
all times. The operations will occur at
two locations on TSR trackage between
milepost (MP) 0.0l and MP 2.16 in Rusk,
Texas, and between MP 23.30 and MP
26.12 in Palestine, Texas, during
daylight hours, at restricted speed, with
no opposing train movements, without
passengers, involving no public
highway grade crossings, and derail
protection will be placed at the end of
each movement at both locations. Each
participant will receive a job briefing
prior to operating a locomotive. TSR
believes that this program will generate
needed revenue and interest in historic
locomotives. TSR also believes these
operations will not pose any safety
concerns to the public at large.
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
New Jersey Ave. SE, W12–140,
Washington, DC 20590. The Docket
Operations Facility is open from 9 a.m.
to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday,
except Federal Holidays.
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 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.
All communications concerning these
proceedings should identify the
appropriate docket number and may be
submitted by any of the following
