(e) The alternative railroad-designed record may be used in lieu of the Initial Rail Equipment Accident/Incident
Record (Form FRA F 6180.97). Any such alternative record shall contain all of the information required on the
Initial Rail Equipment Accident/Incident Record. Although this information may be displayed in a different order
from that on the Initial Rail Equipment Accident/Incident Record, the order of the information shall be consistent
from one such record to another such record. The order chosen by the railroad shall be consistent for each of the
railroad's reporting establishments. Railroads may list additional information in the alternative record beyond the
information required on the Initial Rail Equipment Accident/Incident Record. The alternative record shall contain,
at a minimum, the following information:
(1) Date and time of accident;
(2) Reporting railroad, and accident/incident number;
(3) Other railroad, if applicable, and other railroad's accident/incident number;
(4) Railroad responsible for track maintenance, and that railroad's incident number;
(5) Type of accident/incident (derailment, collision, etc.);
(6) Number of cars carrying hazardous materials that derailed or were damaged; and number of cars
carrying hazardous materials that released product;

described in the ``FRA Guide for Preparing Accidents/Incidents Reports'';
(22) Primary cause;
(23) Contributing cause;
(24) Persons injured, persons killed, and employees with an occupational illness, broken down into the
following classifications: worker on duty--employee; employee not on duty; passenger on train;
nontrespasser--on railroad property; trespasser; worker on duty--contractor; contractor--other; worker on
duty--volunteer; volunteer--other; and nontrespasser-off railroad property;
(25) Narrative description of the accident;
(26) Whether the accident/incident was reported to FRA;
(27) Preparer's name, title, telephone number with area code, and signature; and
(28) Date the record was initially signed/completed.
(f) Each railroad shall enter each reportable and accountable injury and illness and each reportable and accountable
rail equipment accident/incident on the appropriate record, as required by paragraphs (a) through (e) of this section,
as early as practicable but no later than seven working days after receiving information or acquiring knowledge that
an injury or illness or rail equipment accident/incident has occurred.
(g) The records required under paragraphs (a) through (e) of this section may be maintained at the local
establishment or, alternatively, at a centralized location. If the records are maintained at a centralized location, but
not through electronic means, then a paper copy of the records that is current within 35 days of the month to which
it applies shall be available for that establishment. If the records are maintained at a centralized location through
electronic means, then the records for that establishment shall be available for review in a hard copy format within
four business hours of FRA's request. FRA recognizes that circumstances outside the railroad's control may
19
preclude it from fulfilling the four-business-hour time limit. In these circumstances, FRA will not assess a monetary
penalty against the railroad for its failure to provide the requested documentation provided the railroad made a
reasonable effort to correct the problem.
(h) Except as provided in paragraph (h)(15) of this section, a listing of all injuries and occupational illnesses
reported to FRA as having occurred at an establishment shall be posted in a conspicuous location at that
establishment, within 30 days after the expiration of the month during which the injuries and illnesses occurred, if
the establishment has been in continual operation for a minimum of 90 calendar days. If the establishment has not
been in continual operation for a minimum of 90 calendar days, the listing of all injuries and occupational illnesses
reported to FRA as having occurred at the establishment shall be posted, within 30 days after the expiration of the
month during which the injuries and illnesses occurred, in a conspicuous location at the next higher organizational
level establishment, such as one of the following: an operating division headquarters; a major classification yard or
terminal headquarters; a major equipment maintenance or repair installation, e.g., a locomotive or rail car repair or
construction facility; a railroad signal and maintenance-of-way division headquarters; or a central location where
track or signal maintenance employees are assigned as a headquarters or receive work assignments. These
examples include facilities that are generally major facilities of a permanent nature where the railroad generally
posts or disseminates company informational notices and policies, e.g., the policy statement in the internal control
plan required by § 225.33 concerning harassment and intimidation. At a minimum, ``establishment'' posting is
required and shall include locations where a railroad reasonably expects its employees to report during a 12-month
period and to have the opportunity to observe the posted list containing any reportable injuries or illnesses they
have suffered during the applicable period. This listing shall be posted and shall remain continuously displayed for
