Liability Arrangements with Host Railroads • Standard liability coverage • Amtrak has a unique contractual no-fault liability arrangement with its host railroads, an excellent safety record, and a decades-long history of standing behind its liability commitments to hosts. This combination provides the lowest-cost liability arrangement. • Amtrak extends these arrangements to state sponsors by contract. 13 | Amtrak Amtrak is also a “Host” Railroad • Six freight railroads operate on Amtrak Lines • Norfolk Southern • CSX • Providence & Worcester • NECR • Pan Am • Conrail • Most operations at night. • These railroads pay Amtrak’s fully allocated costs. • Regular coordination on industrial development, engineering design, operations planning. 14 | Amtrak Amtrak as “Host” 15 | Amtrak Amtrak’s Rights and Relationships with Host Railroads September 21, 2017 Jim Blair –Director Host Railroads.

Work for member agency Ventura County Transportation Commission includes track, tie, ballast, and culvert replacements, grade crossing rehabilitation, and tunnel track and structure replacements. Reduces trip times, increases reliability, and improves safety by reducing need for slow orders and conflicts at grade crossings in the corridor. Connecticut — Walk Bridge Replacement Up to $79,700,000 Connecticut Department of Transportation & Amtrak Replaces the Connecticut-owned movable Norwalk River Bridge, built in 1896, with two, independent, two-track, vertical lift rail bridges in Norwalk, Connecticut. Includes associated embankment and retaining wall improvements on the bridge approaches, new catenary structures, and signal system upgrades. The existing bridge is beyond its useful life and prone to malfunctions, especially during opening or closing. The replacement will reduce slow orders, reduce the risk of service disruptions, and improve resiliency to extreme weather events.

  • U.S. Railroad Retirement Board

    U.S. Railroad Retirement Board

    FOM1 315 315.1 Supplemental Annuity Background 315.1.1 General In 1966 the Railroad Retirement Board (RRB) began paying supplemental annuities, in addition to regular age and service annuities, to railroad employees who met certain criteria. At that time, eligibility for the supplemental annuity was limited to those employees who were age 65 or older with 25 or more years of railroad service and who were first awarded regular retirement annuities after June 30, 1966. The Railroad Retirement Act of 1974 (RRA) extended supplemental annuity eligibility to those employees who were age 60 or older with 30 or more years of service and who were first awarded regular age and service annuities after June 30, 1974. The 1981 Amendments to the RRA began phasing out the supplemental annuity by adding the requirement that the employee must have at least one month of creditable railroad service before October 1, 1981 to be eligible for the supplemental annuity. Therefore, a supplemental annuity is not payable to an employee who does not have at least one month of service before October 1, 1981, even if they meet all other age and service requirements. 315.1.2 Earliest Supplemental Annuity Eligibility Dates Under 1937 and 1974 Acts A. Earliest Eligibility Dates The date an age and service annuity or disability annuity is awarded is the voucher date of the award, i.e., the date the award is processed for payment. Beginning in 1966, the employee’s age and service annuity had to be vouchered after June 1966 for them to be eligible for a supplemental annuity at age 65 with at least 25 years of service.

OREGON DEPARTMENT OF OPINION REVENUE; SATISH UPADHYAY, in his official capacity as Acting Director of the Oregon Department of Revenue, Defendants-Appellants. Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Oregon Michael H. Simon, District Judge, Presiding Argued and Submitted May 15, 2020 Portland, Oregon Filed July 8, 2020 Before: Jay S. Bybee and Lawrence VanDyke, Circuit Judges, and Vince Chhabria,* District Judge. * The Honorable Vince Chhabria, United States District Judge for the Northern District of California, sitting by designation. 2 BNSF RAILWAY V. OREGON DEP’T OF REVENUE Opinion by Judge VanDyke; Concurrence by Judge Chhabria SUMMARY** Rail Carriers The panel affirmed the district court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of BNSF Railway Co., a rail carrier that challenged the Oregon Department of Revenue’s imposition of a tax on its intangible personal property, such as accounting goodwill. Agreeing with other circuits, the panel held that BNSF could challenge the property tax under the Railroad Revitalization and Regulatory Reform Act, known as the 4- R Act, which prohibits taxes that discriminate against rail carriers. The panel rejected the argument that tax was generally applicable and that BNSF’s challenge was no more than a demand for exemptions offered to other taxpayers. The panel held that the proper comparison class for BNSF was Oregon’s commercial and industrial taxpayers, and the intangible personal property tax assessment discriminated against BNSF in violation of the 4-R Act, 49 U.S.C.
