Plain-English Summary
The LOCOMOTIVES Act would establish new environmental standards for locomotive engines to reduce air pollution and emissions from trains used in freight and passenger transportation. The rules would likely require railroad companies to upgrade or replace older, dirtier engines with cleaner technology over a set timeline. This would affect railroads, shipping companies that rely on rail transport, and communities near rail lines that currently experience air quality problems from locomotive exhaust.
