    The Burlington Junction Railway (BJRY) has requested a waiver from the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) for certain safety regulations under 49 CFR part 223, specifically related to safety glazing standards for an old locomotive. This locomotive, built in 1953, operates in Rochelle, Illinois, at low speeds and currently uses safety laminate glass. Interested parties can submit their comments online or through other specified methods by a given deadline, after which FRA will consider them before making a decision. The FRA does not plan to hold a public hearing unless there's a specific request with a reason by the end of the comment period.

    Simple Explanation

    The Burlington Junction Railway wants to use old glass on a train built in 1953 instead of newer, safer glass, and they’re asking permission from a government agency to do this. People can tell the agency what they think about this by a certain date, and the agency will listen to people’s thoughts before deciding.
