	Class II railroad - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A Class II railroad in the United States is a mid-sized freight-hauling railroad, in terms of its operating revenue.
		Railroads considered by the Association of American Railroads as "Regional Railroads" are typically Class II railroads.

	EPA: Federal Register: Regulations on Safety Integration Plans Governing Railroad Consolidations, Mergers, and ...
		Class II railroads are rail carriers generating operating revenue, measured in inflation-adjusted 1991 dollars, between $20 million and $250 million.) Concurrently, the STB's proposed rule would have required railroads seeking to engage in all transactions addressed in FRA's NPRM other than start-up operations to file a SIP with the Board for its review and approval.
		The employees of that railroad will have to be trained in the new operating rules and will have to overcome the bias common among railroaders that the railroad on which they started had the best way of running a railroad.
		The railroad organization agreed with the operating rules provision because of its integral nature in governing operations on a new railroad system, but opposed the accident/incident reporting and alcohol and drug testing provisions on the ground that they are not integration issues unique to regulated transactions.

		The labor protections mandated for mid-size railroads are as follows: The Board shall require any Class II rail carrier which receives [expedited approval of a rail line acquisition] to provide a fair and equitable arrangement for the protec- tion of the interests of employees who may be affected thereby.
		Wald, Circuit Judge, dissenting from Part II: I disagree with the panel that the statutory provision for severance pay for rail workers who lose their jobs as a result of short-line acquisitions under section 10902(d) is unambiguously limited to workers who after the acquisition will no longer work for the selling railroad.
		Under the ICC regime, when Class II carriers were granted exemptions from labor protections, the average percentage of employees with the selling carrier who went to work for the new operator was 85 percent.

		Under subsection 10902(d), a Class II railroad that acquires a rail line subject to the Board's jurisdiction must provide a fair and equitable arrangement for the protection of employees who may be affected by the transaction.

		In view of the requirement of subsection 10902(d) that a Class II railroad provide a fair and equitable arrangement for the protection of employees adversely affected by the carrier's acquisition, the Board invites comments on whether WCL's proposed employee protective arrangement meets the requirements of 49 U.S.C.
