Subject: Comments Regarding Railroad Museums and Tourist Passenger Operations
Comment:
The Pacific Locomotive Association fully supports the California Short Line Association comments. We operate both Steam and Diesel locomotives for the benefit of the public, on the last link of the Transcontinental Railroad, and cannot exist without being able to operate historic diesel locomotives and our oil burning steam locomotives. We work with our neighbors to monitor the air quality around our operations, and to date have not found any noticable impact from our operations, but have noticed significant impacts from the rush hour vehicle traffic on the Niles Canyon Highway which parallels our route. Please consider amending the exemptions to include museum operations such as ours where every locomotive is more than 23 years old.
