Neat! And makes sense, given railroad property is by nature multi-jurisdictional. Among other rail oddities, when looking into a rail industry job, it turns out rail employees have the only federally -administered and -funded private pension system, created by the Railroad Retirement Act (1935, same year as social security). In modern specifics, it's basically Social Security by another name. https://www.rrb.gov/Resources/LegalInformation/PartitionofRRA/The_RRA https://www.rrb.gov/Resources/LegalInformation/PartitionofRR...
