LIRR Seeks Extension to Hours Waiver
The Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) petitioned the Federal Railroad Administration for an extension of relief from certain hours-of-service regulations so it can keep using special scheduling rules for its workers. If FRA grants the extension, LIRR would be allowed to continue operating under that relief and may avoid extra costs or service delays tied to the usual hours-of-service requirements.
