A bill for an act relating to railroad train length limits, and making penalties applicable.

This bill limits the maximum length of freight or work railroad trains operated by railway corporations in Iowa to 8,500 feet. It directly affects railroad companies that transport freight, requiring them to comply with this length restriction on all parts of their rail lines. Violations result in fines of $500 to $5,000 per incident, as specified under existing penalty schedules. The bill amends Iowa Code section 327D.3 to establish this limit and clarify enforcement.
