Missouri HB3462 mandates a two-person crew for railroad trains or light engines used in freight movement, with exceptions.
Missouri HB3462 requires a minimum two-person crew for railroad trains or light engines involved in freight movement, except for helper services, hostler services, or trains moving at ten miles per hour or less for loading or unloading. Violations incur fines, with escalating penalties for repeat offenses. The Department of Transportation enforces this rule and may create regulations to implement it. The bill does not conflict with federal regulations and will only take effect after a federal court affirms the Federal Railroad Administration's two-person crew rule.
