I bet they need to register them, just like Taxis, but that probably also
varies from state to state.

I am glad to hear that the humans who might need to intervene (when there
are any!) need some sort of license.

I am even skeptical of that.  A good engineer will know things from
experience that AI probably would never know.  There are fewer unexpected
things that can happen to a train, but they do still happen.
