Regulatory Background: FRA 218

The Federal Railroad Administration’s CFR 49 Part 218 mandates Blue Flag protection for railroad workers. This regulation prescribes the minimum requirements for the protection of workers involved in inspecting, testing, repairing, and servicing rolling equipment. It ensures that no equipment is moved or coupled while workers are present, thereby preventing accidents and injuries.

Why Blue Flags Are Essential

Enhanced Visibility: The reflective nature of the blue flags ensures they are visible at all times, reducing the risk of accidents caused by unnoticed workers.

Regulatory Compliance: Adhering to FRA 218 regulations helps railroads avoid legal liabilities and ensures they are following federal safety standards.

Worker Safety: By clearly marking equipment that is under maintenance, Blue Flags protect workers from the dangers associated with accidental movements of rolling stock.

Operational Efficiency: Standardizing the use of Blue Flags and ensuring their visibility helps in coordinating maintenance activities efficiently, minimizing disruptions in railroad operations.

Locomotive Running Board Safety Rail

The Locomotive Handrail is a safety add-on that attaches to the outside of a locomotive’s existing handrails.

Designed with four horizontal bars, it creates a visual cue to help workers maintain awareness of their surroundings during maintenance tasks, without impeding movement or door operation.

SKU# SH10267M Locomotive Safety Handrail – Main Product Page HERE

Measuring 36 inches high and 96 inches long, the handrail includes two aluminum clamps, three vertical supports, and four horizontal bars. Installation is simple using two adjustable clamps on the locomotive’s vertical poles.

An alternative vertical handrail, the SH10266M Vertical Handrail, is available for those needing to go above the locomotive handrail.

Proper inspection before use is essential, checking for broken welds and ensuring all components are in good condition. Installation involves placing the safety rail over the outside of the existing handrail, locking hangers, and securely tightening the adjustable stanchion clamps.

Both the SH10267M and SH10266M handrails provide crucial safety enhancements for workers performing maintenance tasks on locomotives, with thoughtful design and easy installation.
