62624 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 175 / Tuesday, September 12, 2023 / Notices 

2See, e.g., 49 CFR 215.103, 229.73, 229.75. 

regulations 2 that focus on preventing 

broken wheels and other wheel failures. 

WILD measurements are intended to 

focus more on the interaction between 

the wheels and the rail and prevent 

broken rails and other rail failures. 

WILDs are designed to measure the 

impact of a railcar’s wheels on the rail 

and alert the operating railroad and car 

owner when wheels have a high impact. 

WILDs measure this impact on the rail 

in KIPs (1,000 pounds-force). Highimpact wheels (generally considered to 

be more than 90 KIPs) are typically 

caused by a flat spot or other wheel 

defect. If not addressed, high-impact 

wheels can damage rail and track 

structures and cause a derailment. 

On February 21, 2023, 30 freight cars 

carrying coal derailed in a train in 

Gothenburg, Nebraska. FRA’s 

preliminary investigation indicates the 

derailment was likely caused by highimpact wheels breaking a track joint bar. 

Records from FRA’s investigation show 

one of the freight cars had a WILD 

measurement of 130.6 KIPs when it 

operated over the track joint bar that 

was found broken. Records also show 

this freight car continued to operate for 

several months prior to the derailment 

after its high-impact wheels were 

identified by WILDs. WILD 

measurements showed high-impact 

wheels in November and December 

2022, and again in January 2023. During 

its investigation, FRA also identified 

eight other freight cars in the derailed 

train with high-impact wheels. 

Recommendations 

In light of the Gothenburg, Nebraska, 

accident, FRA recommends railroads 

and contractors continue to use WILDs 

to help identify and replace high-impact 

wheels according to railroad current 

industry practices. Specifically, wheels 

with a WILD measurement greater than 

80 KIPs should be replaced when in a 

repair shop, and wheels with a WILD 

measurement greater than 90 KIPs 

should be replaced when found in any 

other location in service. In addition, 

railroads should review procedures for 

identifying dynamic ratios to help 

predict high-impact wheels when cars 

are loaded. A dynamic ratio is the ratio 

of a WILD measurement of a loaded 

railcar compared to when it is empty. 

The peak impact is the highest WILD 

measurement recorded. The impact 

measurement varies during operation 

due to the changing operating 

environment, including changes in 

speed. Wheels should be replaced when 

an empty railcar with a dynamic ratio of 

5 or higher has a preceding peak impact 

greater than 100 KIPs. Replacement at 

such time will reduce or eliminate 

further damage to the freight car’s 

wheels, rails, and track structures. In 

addition, FRA recommends railroads 

and contractors review this Safety 

Advisory with employees to increase 

their awareness of the possible 

consequences of allowing freight cars 

with high-impact wheels to continue to 

operate. 

Conclusion 

FRA encourages all railroad industry 

members to take actions consistent with 

the recommendations of this Safety 

Advisory. FRA may modify this Safety 

Advisory, issue additional safety 

advisories, or take other appropriate 

action necessary to ensure the highest 

level of safety on the Nation’s railroads, 

including pursuing other corrective 

measures under its rail safety authority.
