§ 213.234(d) reads as follows:
Performance standard for automated inspection measurement system. The automated inspection measurement system must be capable of indicating and processing rail seat deterioration requirements that specify the following:
- An accuracy, to within 1⁄8 of an inch;
- A distance-based sampling interval, which shall not exceed five feet; and
- Calibration procedures and parameters assigned to the system, which assure that indicated and recorded values accurately represent rail seat deterioration.
“Performance standard for automated inspection measurement system”. Automated inspection of track constructed with concrete crossties (Report). Code of Federal Regulations. September 9, 2011. 49 CFR 213.234(d). Retrieved February 11, 2026.
The FRA further stated that the section as a whole “was never intended to require railroads to detect all areas of rail seat deterioration, but rather to supplement manual visual inspections.”
