Capital projects must be in a Transit Asset Management (TAM) plan and this funding source can be used to develop a Transit Asset Management (TAM) plan. The Competitive Rail Vehicle Replacement Grant (49 U.S.C. 5337(f)) is a discretionary grant program to assist in financing the replacement of rail rolling stock.
