DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Railroad Administration 

Petition for Waiver of Compliance 

In accordance with Part 211 of Title 

49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), 

notice is hereby given that the Federal 

Railroad Administration (FRA) has 

received a request for a waiver of 

compliance from certain requirements 

of its safety standards. The individual 

petition is described below, including 

the party seeking relief, the regulatory 

provisions involved, the nature of the 

relief being requested, and the 

petitioner’s arguments in favor of relief. 

Marquette Rail, LLC 

[Docket Number FRA–2008–0081] 

The Marquette Rail, LLC, has 

submitted a waiver request to permit 

field testing of the software-based 

dispatch system for low density lines 

identified as TrackAccess System. The 

waiver request addresses the 

requirements under 49 CFR 211.51. 

TrackAccess is an electronic track 

occupancy system similar to the 

conventional block register. It is 

designed to protect the area of exclusive 

track occupancy given to roadway 

workers or train crew members by 

excluding the possibility of electronic 

issuance of conflicting track occupancy 

authorities. TrackAccess aims to reduce 

the potential for human errors 

associated with issuance of track 

occupancy authorities to roadway 

workers and train crews by the 

dispatcher. In its autonomous mode of 

operation, the TrackAccess System 

assumes electronic delivery of track 

occupancy authorities to roadway 

workers and train crews. 

Marquette Rail, LLC, desires to 

commence field testing of the product 

on or about March 1, 2010, or as soon 

thereafter as practicable, contingent 

upon FRA’s acceptance and approval of 

this waiver request. Marquette Rail, 

LLC, is requesting a petition of 

regulatory relief from the following 

Federal regulation: 49 CFR 214.321(a)(1) 

Exclusive Track Occupancy. 

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. 

All communications concerning these 

proceedings should identify the

Communications received within 30 

days of the date of this notice will be

taken. Comments received after that 

date will be considered as far as 

practicable. All written communications

Morton Buildings, Inc. 

[Waiver Petition Docket Number FRA–2010– 

0015] 

The Morton Buildings, Inc. (MBI) has 

petitioned FRA for a waiver of 

compliance from the requirements of 49 

CFR 223.11 Safety Glazing Standards for 

Locomotives, 49 CFR 231.30 

Locomotives used in Switching Service, 

49 CFR Part 224 Reflectorization of Rail 

Freight Rolling Stock, and 49 CFR Part 

229 Locomotive Safety Standards, for 

one Whiting Trackmobile. MBI is a 

manufacturer of steel clad buildings and 

the company is located in Morton, IL, 

with six other manufacturing locations. 

One of the six locations in Spencer, IA, 

is not served by rail and MBI provides 

for switching of approximately one 

hundred cars a year, utilizing a ‘‘Whiting 

Trackmobile’’ a self-propelled highway/ 

rail vehicle. 

MBI states in their request that they 

operate over 3.2 miles of former Soo 

Line track known as the North Railroad 

Spur Track, which they lease from the 

city of Spencer. MBI only provides 

service to itself, switching of cars is 

done in daylight hours, and they do not 

operate the trackmobile during 

inclement weather. The trackmobile is 

always operated in the lead position at 

speeds not to exceed 10 miles per hour. 

The approval of this request would 

allow for continued use of the Whiting 

Trackmobile for MBI operations.
