Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 25 / Wednesday, February 6, 2019 / Notices
assigned the petition Docket Number
FRA–2018–0100.
Specifically, NS proposes to create a
3D simulation using web-based software
to satisfy the ‘‘hands-on’’ portion of the
training required by 49 CFR 232.203(e),
in connection with periodic refresher
training. Refresher training is required
at intervals not to exceed 3 years, and
shall consist of classroom and hands-on
training, as well as testing. NS states
that due to the velocity of their
operations network, it is often difficult
to provide a consistent training and
testing environment regarding car
selection, defects, and availability.
Further, NS contends that this
proposal’s one-on-one training will be
more conducive to learning than a group
setting.
The NS proposal will simulate a Class
I Brake Test and places the user in a
virtual 3D scenario requiring concrete
responses to an array of preprogrammed
defects on various types of freight cars
and brake systems while performing the
brake test. To successfully complete the
scenario, the user must identify key
components and identify and correct all
defects, including but not limited to
closed cut-out cocks, uncoupled air
hoses, closed angle cocks, wrongly
positioned retainer valves, and fouled
brake rigging.
NS seeks to apply this waiver system
wide to all NS craft personnel
responsible for performing freight air
brakes tests, including supervisors,
freight car repair personnel, and
conductors.
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

Washington, DC 20590. The Docket
