Petition for Alternative Locomotive 

Crashworthiness Design 

In accordance with Part 211 of Title 

49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), 

this document provides the public 

notice that by a document dated March 

2, 2012, the National Railroad Passenger 

Corporation (Amtrak) has petitioned the 

Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) 

for approval of alternative locomotive 

crashworthiness design for an electric 

locomotive, Model ACS–64, built by 

Siemens Industry, Inc. This request is 

made in accordance with the provisions 

prescribed in 49 CFR 229.209. FRA 

assigned the petition Docket Number 

FRA–2012–0036. 

The alternative design incorporates 

crash energy management features, 

detailed in the petition and attachments, 

in lieu of collision and corner posts as 

required by 49 CFR 229.205. Amtrak 

states that the performance of this 

design is equivalent to that obtained 

through traditional structural 

requirements. Further, Amtrak states 

that the design will fully comply with 

the requirements of Appendix F to 

49 CFR part 238. 

A copy of the petition, as well as any 

written communications concerning the 

petition, is available for review online at
