This bill proposes to amend current statutes by adding a new section to Title 40, Chapter 4, Article 3 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. Specifically, it introduces section 40-850, which stipulates that a railroad operating in this state may not run or be allowed to run on any part of a main track or branch line a train that exceeds eight thousand five hundred feet in length. This new regulation aims to establish a maximum train length for safety and operational efficiency. The existing laws regarding railroad operations, including those related to safety standards and the responsibilities of railroad employees, remain unchanged as indicated by the ... sections. The addition of this new provision does not delete or modify any current statutes but rather supplements them with specific limitations on train lengths.
