The collection of information associated with CFR parts 215, Railroad Freight Car Safety Standards (FCSS) requires that any railroad carrier that has a freight car assigned to dedicated service be stenciled to indicate special service. FRA reviews this information to determine if the equipment is safe to operate and if the operation qualifies for dedicated service. The required information is also used by the railroads to provide identification and control for carriers so that dedicated cars remain in the prescribed service. FRA is amending the FCSS to implement the SAFE TRAINS Act mandate that FRA issue a regulation to monitor and enforce industry's compliance with the standards of the Act. FRA is requiring freight car manufacturers to certify annually by electronic submission that each freight car complies with the Act before it operates on the U.S. general railroad system of transportation. This information collection is mandatory, submitted on an as needed basis, and there is a requirement for record keeping.
