    This section is derived from 45:802 for clarity. That section 
contains definitions for the Railroad Revitalization and Regulatory 
Reform Act of 1976 (Public Law 94-210, 90 Stat. 33). Title VII of that 
Act is the source of the source provisions restated in this chapter. 
However, other titles of that Act are not being restated because they 
are outside the scope of the restatement. Therefore, 45:802 is not being 
restated in this restatement and only the relevant definitions are 
accounted for in this chapter.
