AZ HB2102

Amends Arizona Revised Statutes Section 40-881 to establish minimum crew requirements for trains operating outside yard limits based on train composition and track type.

Requires passenger, mail, or express trains with fewer than six cars to carry at least one engineer, one fireman, one conductor, and one flagman.

Requires passenger, mail, or express trains with six or more cars to carry at least one engineer, one fireman, one conductor, and one brakeman on main lines, and the same crew (without flagman) on branch lines.

Mandates railroads maintain a minimum of two operating employees in the control compartment of the lead locomotive while trains are in motion and during remote control operations.

Exempts passenger, mail, or express trains and switching operations, car inspection movements, and setouts in conjunction with road service from the two-employee control compartment requirement.
