Excursion trains. Adds Buchanan County, by population, to the list of counties in which a person may predominantly operate an excursion train and be certified as an excursion train operator by the Department of Motor Vehicles. Excursion trains are passenger trains primarily used for tourism or public service, and that leads to the promotion of the tourist industry in the Commonwealth. Certified operators must carry at least $10 million in liability insurance for injuries to persons or property and cannot also own or operate a regularly scheduled passenger train service with interstate connection.
