available, and be able to show an FRA inspector upon request, a current 

copy of the service day record that contains the number of service days 

the steam locomotive has accrued since the last 31, 92, Annual and 1472 

service day inspections.

    (b) Service day report. By the 31st of every January, every steam 

locomotive owner and/or operator shall file a service day report, FRA 

Form No. 5, with the Regional Administrator accounting for the days the 

steam locomotive was in service from January 1 through December 31st of 

the preceding year. If the steam locomotive was in service zero (0) days 

during that period, a report must still be filed to prevent the steam 

locomotive from being considered retired by FRA. (See appendix B of this 

part.)

    (c) Retirement where no service day reports filed. Where the steam 

locomotive owner and/or operator does not file the required service day 

report for a steam locomotive, that steam locomotive

operator must complete all 1472 service day inspection items to return a 

retired steam locomotive to service.
