SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The rail cost adjustment factor (RCAF) is an index formulated to represent changes in railroad costs incurred by the nation's largest railroads over a specified period of time. The Surface Transportation Board (Board) is required by law to publish the RCAF on at least a quarterly basis. Each quarter, the Association of American Railroads computes three types of RCAF figures and submits those figures to the Board for approval. The Board has reviewed the submission and adopts the RCAF figures for the fourth quarter of 2024. The fourth quarter 2024 RCAF (Unadjusted) is 0.961. The fourth quarter 2024 RCAF (Adjusted) is 0.375. The fourth quarter 2024 RCAF-5 is 0.354. Additional information is contained in the Board's decision, which is available at www.stb.gov.
