Import Tips
• Provide evidence of narrow-gauge specification (e.g
• 24-36 inch) to distinguish from standard railway track
• Include safety certifications for mine use, such as MSHA (Mine Safety and Health Administration) compliance docs
• Avoid bundling with fish plates or clips to prevent set classification under other track material subheadings
