Automatic Train Control (ATC) and Advanced Civil Speed Enforcement System (ACSES); Northeast Corridor (NEC) Railroads

FRA amends its Order of Particular Applicability requiring all trains operating on the Northeast Corridor (NEC) between New Haven, Connecticut and Boston, Massachusetts (NEC--North End) to be equipped to respond to the new Advanced Civil Speed Enforcement System (ACSES) system. This amendment extends the date by which CSXT must complete testing of new Amtrak operational software on three CSXT ACSES-equipped locomotives from September 16, 2001, to March 16, 2002. This action is necessary because of delays in the development of the software, which will be used to support more efficient operations.
