OMB 2130-0506

This collection of information is associated with 49 CFR 232.3(d), it is mandatory, submitted to FRA as needed, and has a requirement for reporting and recordkeeping. Under this requirement I.D. cards/tags are used to identify any freight equipment moved in accordance with part 232.3(d). All railroads on the general system of transportation must comply with this provision and tag specified equipment that they find necessary to move. This tagging of equipment serves as a record, enhances railroad employee's safety and ensures that rolling stock arrives at the correct designated locations, thereby reducing shipper's expenses.
