Under part 211 of title 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), this
document provides the public notice that on May 4, 2023, Burlington
Junction Railway (BJRY) petitioned the Federal Railroad Administration
(FRA) for an extension of a waiver of compliance from certain
provisions of the Federal railroad safety regulations contained at 49
CFR part 223 (Safety Glazing Standards--Locomotives, Passenger Cars and
Cabooses). The relevant Docket Number is FRA-2018-0045.

for operation on BJRY in Burlington, Iowa. In support of its petition,
BJRY provided documentation

from the City of Burlington, Iowa, Police Department and costs of FRA-
approved glazing on the locomotive.
A copy of the petition, as well as any written communications
concerning the petition, is available for review online at

specify the basis for their request.

will be considered if practicable. Anyone can search the electronic
form of any written communications and comments received into any of
