Federal Railroad Administration

Petition for a Waiver of Compliance

In accordance with 49 CFR 211.9 and

211.41, notice is hereby given that the

Federal Railroad Administration (FRA)

has received a request for a waiver of

compliance with certain requirements of

Federal railroad safety regulations. The

individual petitions are 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.

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

appropriate docket number (e.g., Waiver

Petition Docket No. RSEQ–95–3) and

must be submitted in triplicate to the

Docket Clerk, Office of Chief Counsel,

Federal Railroad Administration, Nassif

Building, 400 Seventh Street, SW,

Washington, DC 20590.

Communications received before March

4, 1996 will be considered by FRA

before final action is taken. Comments

received after that date will be

considered as far as practicable. All

written communications concerning

these proceedings are available for

examination during regular business

hours (9 a.m.–5 p.m.) in Room 8201,

Nassif Building, 400 Seventh Street,

SW, Washington, DC 20590. The waiver

petitions are as follows:

Michigan State Trust for Railway

Preservation, Inc. (MSTP)

FRA Waiver Petition Docket No. RSEQ–

95–3

The MSTP seeks a waiver of

compliance with Title 49, Code of

Federal Regulations (49 CFR), Part 240,

‘‘Qualifications for Locomotive

Engineers.’’ MSTP is a non-profit

educational corporation. MSTP owns

and operates a 1941 Lima built steam

locomotive. The locomotive, No. 1225,

has operated approximately 5000 miles

since 1988 throughout the general

railroad system and has been in

compliance with 49 CFR part 230 since

that time. The MSTP steam locomotive

is located at a repair facility in Owosso,

Michigan. The facility is connected to

the tracks of the Tuscola and Saginaw

Bay Railway (TSBY). The MSTP owns

and controls two (2) lead tracks each

approximately 130 feet long and

extending from the repair shop building

to the connection with the TSBY. The

MSTP requests a waiver from Part 240

which will allow operation of No. 1225

a distance of .875 miles in each

direction by non-certified persons over

TSBY trackage with approved

restrictions. The waiver would allow

MSTP to permit the public to operate

the locomotive on the TSBY trackage. In

addition, MSTP would generate

continued interest in and revenue

required to teach steam technology to

future generations.

Deputy Associate Administrator for Safety

Compliance and Program Implementation.
