The Train Crew Choice Act aims to nullify a final rule published by the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) regarding train crew size safety requirements. The bill's primary objective is to prevent the implementation of federally mandated minimum crew sizes for freight trains, effectively maintaining the status quo where railroads have flexibility in determining appropriate crew sizes based on operational needs and safety considerations.
