The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) is the federal agency
primarily responsible for safety in the rail industry. FRA's safety
programs were last authorised in 1994; their authorisation expired
in 1998. Most measures of rail safety have improved significantly
since FRA's last authorisation, including the number of grade
crossing collisions and fatalities and the number of employee
injuries and deaths. However, the improvements in safety measures
have levelled off in recent years. Given significant projected
continued increases in freight and passenger rail activity in the
coming decade, there is concern that without additional efforts,
some of the gain of the past decade may be lost. This book explores
the issues, regulations and safety of U.S. railroads.
