Summary:
This series consists of the original case files documenting the Department of Transportation's (DOT) regulation of the state's
railroads from 1971 onward. DOT initially placed regulatory responsibility in its Regulation Division, although that function
was later the responsibility of the Passenger and Freight Safety Division. Despite the title of the division, the cases actually
concern all regulatory matters, including those with no safety implications.
