New Jersey Railroad Law Enforcement Guide NEW JERSEY RAILROAD LAW ENFORCEMENT GUIDE R R FOR RESPONSE TO RAILROAD INCIDENTS Dedicated to all law enforcement who served, are serving and will serve in the future. 1 JURISDICTION AND AUTHORITY Under 49 US Code § 28101 Federal Government defines the jurisdiction of railroad police officers and allows each state to control jurisdictional authority. In the State of New Jersey (N.J.S.A. 48:3-38) railroad police officers carry the title of “Special Agent”. Railroad Special Agents are commissioned by the State of New Jersey through the Governor’s Office and enjoy the privileges of full law enforcement authority. DISCLAIMER This Law Enforcement Guide is intended to assist New Jersey Law Enforcement personnel when investigating railroad-related crimes, answering calls for service or conducting motor vehicle investigations on railroad property. While the statutes listed here are intended as reference material, this compendium does not include all applicable law. Additional statutes and local ordinances may be relevant in an enforcement action. Consult your Agency legal advisor or local prosecutor. Do not change any departmental policy or procedure based on this reference material without the review and approval of your legal advisor. This document is for reference only and does not constitute legal advice. The author and contributing entities make no claim as to the accuracy, completeness or adequacy of this guide and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omission in the content. Copyright © 2018 by New Jersey Operation Lifesaver. All rights reserved. 2 Police work is inherently dangerous on any given day, the addition of working on or along any railroad makes that danger greater. Please be aware of your surroundings on tracks, trestles, bridges, tunnels and all railroad property. Trains are powerful. Trains are quiet. Trains move in any direction, on any track, at any time. Prior to working on or along any railroad, exhaust all efforts to contact and notify the railroad of your activities. Locate the Emergency Notification Sign, displayed on posts at railroad crossings, for the operating railroad’s contact information and unique six digit number with one letter, pinpointing your location. Do not go on the property until you have confirmed train traffic has been halted. Make sure all personnel are accounted for and off the property before trains are released to operate. Additional safety tips and information can be found on the Operation Lifesaver, Inc. website at www.oli.org. The New Jersey Railroad Law Enforcement Guide is available in PDF format on the New Jersey Operation Lifesaver website at community.oli.org/state/nj.

The following tips are critical to safety and should always be remembered: • NEVER walk on or near any railroad tracks while conducting your job. Despite their size, trains have been designed to move quickly and quietly along the tracks, offering little to no warning of their approach. • An optical illusion makes trains appear to be farther away and slower moving than they actually are. The average freight train hauling 6,000 tons and traveling at 55 MPH will need, at a minimum, one mile in length to stop. It can take the length of 18 football fields to stop a train. • Trains operate at any time, in any direction on any track. Unlike vehicular traffic control, trains work on efficiency and will travel on the most feasible route. • Become familiar with all local railroads and who dispatches the trains in your community and any community that may request mutual aid or back up. The name on the railcar does not necessarily indicate the owner of the railroad. Through mutual agreements, privately owned rail lines will operate on competing tracks and trains carrying passengers often run on the same rail as freight trains. A list of contact information for rail lines in New Jersey is provided on pages 8 and 9 for your convenience. When in doubt, use the contact information for the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) to confirm dispatcher information. 6 • Before sending any personnel to an on-track or rail related incident, first contact the dispatcher to ensure all train traffic has been halted. Once confirmed, it is still imperative to post personnel along the rail line to watch for and alert others of any unexpected train activity. • It is in your best interest to get to know and visit areas served by your local railroads. Be prepared and scope out possible points of entry in case of an emergency or derailment. Look for areas to adequately stage emergency vehicles without creating a bottleneck, ensuring ingress and egress can be accomplished. Visit New Jersey Operation Lifesaver at community.oli.org/state/nj and connect with a NJ State Representative to arrange training and establish a direct connection with the railroad police agency responsible for the railroad in your community. Partnering with people who share a common interest in serving the public will allow first responders to act more efficiently when there is an incident involving the railroad and ultimately provide a safer environment for everyone. Stay safe and thank you for your service. Thomas J.

  • Transportation Trips, Excursions, Special Journeys, Outings, Tours, and Milestones In, To, from Or Through New Jersey
    TRANSPORTATION TRIPS, EXCURSIONS, SPECIAL JOURNEYS, OUTINGS, TOURS, AND MILESTONES IN, TO, FROM OR THROUGH NEW JERSEY Bill McKelvey, Editor, Updated to Mon., Mar. 8, 2021 INTRODUCTION This is a reference work which we hope will be useful to historians and researchers. For those researchers wanting to do a deeper dive into the history of a particular event or series of events, copious resources are given for most of the fantrips, excursions, special moves, etc. in this compilation. You may find it much easier to search for the RR, event, city, etc. you are interested in than to read the entire document. We also think it will provide interesting, educational, and sometimes entertaining reading. Perhaps it will give ideas to future fantrip or excursion leaders for trips which may still be possible. In any such work like this there is always the question of what to include or exclude or where to draw the line. Our first thought was to limit this work to railfan excursions, but that soon got broadened to include rail specials for the general public and officials, special moves, trolley trips, bus outings, waterway and canal journeys, etc. The focus has been on such trips which operated within NJ; from NJ; into NJ from other states; or, passed through NJ. We have excluded regularly scheduled tourist type rides, automobile journeys, air trips, amusement park rides, etc. NOTE: Since many of the following items were taken from promotional literature we can not guarantee that each and every trip was actually operated. Early on the railways explored and promoted special journeys for the public as a way to improve their bottom line.

Preface The Federal Railroad Administration’s (FRA) regulations on reporting railroad accidents/incidents are found primarily in Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 225.1 The purpose of the regulations in Part 225 is to provide FRA with accurate information concerning the hazards and risks that exist on the Nation’s railroads. See § 225.1. FRA needs this information to effectively carry out its regulatory and enforcement responsibilities under the Federal railroad safety statutes.2 FRA also uses this information for determining comparative trends of railroad safety and to develop hazard elimination and risk reduction programs that focus on preventing railroad injuries and accidents. 1 For brevity, further references in the Guide to sections in 49 CFR Part 225 will omit “49 CFR” and include only the section, e.g., § 225.9. 2 Title 49 U.S.C. chapters 51, 201–213. iv Table of Contents Executive Summary ........................................................................................................................ 1 1.
