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

SF 25 limits the maximum length of freight and work railroad trains operated in Iowa to 8,500 feet. This directly affects railway corporations that operate such trains within the state. Violating this limit results in fines of $500 to $5,000 per violation, as specified under existing Code section 327C.5. The bill amends Code section 327D.3 to establish this requirement and apply the existing penalty structure.
