Locomotive Storage Event

Note: A user must be authorized to update a locomotive inspection due date. See Add Inspection Right.

An FRA Drop Dead Date is the date a locomotive would not be allowed to be on the road due to an expired inspection date. Locomotives not needed for moving trains are sometimes removed from the road for a period of non-use. When a locomotive is in storage, its FRA Drop Dead Date is extended for the period of storage (or to a specified new FRA Drop Dead Date).

When the user selects the Locomotive Storage Event link, the Report Locomotive Storage Event page is displayed (Exhibit 161).
