Social Insurance for Railroad Workers obligations in Missouri

Social Insurance for Railroad Workers (CFDA 57.001) shows $1,297,845,098.85 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to Missouri across 10,875 awards. The pair is a Railroad Retirement Board catalog line joined to place of performance, not a ranking of rail hubs and not a count of active railroad employees. Obligations are commitments, not monthly annuity checks cashed. The Missouri × 57.001 overlay holds the rows.

Key figures

  • CFDA 57.001 shows $1,297,845,098.85 in USAspending obligations in Missouri.
  • Award count is 10,875; implied mean about $119,000.
  • The join is program × place of performance, not a rail-hub ranking.
  • Figures are obligations, not outlays.

Ten thousand eight hundred seventy-five benefit records

This tie keeps USAspending assistance where CFDA 57.001 meets Missouri place of performance. The dollar book is $1,297,845,098.85. The award count is 10,875. Railroad retirement and related social-insurance payments often post as a high-volume tape of individual benefit actions rather than a handful of formula grants. Ten thousand eight hundred seventy-five records still do not equal 10,875 unique beneficiaries; modifications and recurring payments can share the extract.

The join does not prove that Missouri’s rail-yard geography, Class I headquarters presence, or a particular retirement cohort caused $1,297,845,098.85. Those are other series. This packet does not split retirement annuities from survivor or unemployment insurance inside 57.001. Correlation is not causation.

A reader who treats the cell as Missouri’s full federal obligation book has left the CFDA-by-state definition. BEAD is a different catalog number on the same statewide stack. The 10,875 figure is a record count, not a headcount of railroad workers.

High volume, smaller implied mean

Ten thousand eight hundred seventy-five awards under $1,297,845,098.85 imply a mean near $119,342 per award. That average is a blend of larger annuity-related actions and smaller payments. The packet has no median and no share on the largest ten records.

Compared with Missouri’s two-award BEAD cell, 10,875 rows is a much thicker tape for a smaller dollar book. That contrast is a filing pattern: social-insurance benefits post at a finer grain than state broadband allocations. Cite both columns. USAspending.gov is the source; SpendingVault does not recast the mean as a typical monthly annuity.

Missouri’s 57.001 cell versus parent rollups

Missouri’s state hub stacks every CFDA with performance coded to the state. Social Insurance for Railroad Workers is an RRB line. $1,297,845,098.85 is not Missouri’s all-program total. The nationwide CFDA 57.001 page includes every state, so it is not this cell.

Place-of-performance for railroad social insurance often follows the beneficiary’s coded location, which may differ from the railroad’s operating state. This packet does not reallocate payments to home terminals. Read the overlay as a coding view of 10,875 awards.

Obligations versus annuity checks

The $1,297,845,098.85 figure is an obligation sum. Monthly disbursements can trail or split across the obligation window. SpendingVault does not publish a 57.001-in-Missouri outlay total in this packet. Mixing BLS railroad-employment or FRA accident statistics with this award file leaves the USAspending series.

Cite the join as CFDA 57.001 × Missouri, $1,297,845,098.85, 10,875 awards, obligations only.

Parent hubs

The Missouri × Social Insurance for Railroad Workers overlay is the table view. Recipient slices on that hub still sum toward $1,297,845,098.85 on 10,875 awards. The Missouri spending page and the CFDA 57.001 program page are the parents. The Missouri programs index and the ties index list other pairs.

None of those links convert the cell into a worker headcount or into outlays this packet omits.

What Missouri railroad social insurance is not

Social Insurance for Railroad Workers in Missouri is not a ranking of rail hubs and not a count of active railroad employees. The $1,297,845,098.85 figure is the CFDA 57.001 × Missouri cell. Ten thousand eight hundred seventy-five awards describe how RRB benefit records were filed, including recurring payments, not 10,875 unique workers. Retirement, survivor, and unemployment insurance that still carry 57.001 are not split here.

BEAD in Missouri is a two-award NTIA cell. Opposite award-count patterns at a similar dollar order of magnitude are a filing contrast. Cite 57.001 and Missouri together, keep the obligation label, and keep the 10,875-award count. Place-of-performance may follow the beneficiary rather than the railroad’s operating state. Later bulk files can revise both dollars and the record count.

Missouri’s railroad social-insurance cell also does not include a unique-beneficiary headcount, annuity-versus-unemployment splits, or terminal-level employment. Those series live with the Railroad Retirement Board. SpendingVault cites USAspending.gov obligations only: CFDA 57.001 × Missouri, $1,297,845,098.85, 10,875 awards. If a later extract revises the 10,875-row tape, the implied mean near $119,342 moves with it. Quote the packet facts and the overlay path rather than a rail-hub ranking.
