document provides the public notice
that on October 18, 2022, Northern

compliance from certain provisions of
the Federal railroad safety regulations
contained at 49 CFR 229.47, Emergency
brake valve. The relevant FRA Docket
Number is FRA–2018–0006.
Specifically, NPR requests to extend

installed adjacent to the rear door of a
locomotive for five EMD SD60F
locomotives (Numbers 5513, 5517, 5518,

to see the person riding on the back and
are equipped with radio

used in road service and will be paired
together. In support of its request, NPR
states that it has ‘‘no history of
vandalism.’’
