Assessments made for the expenses of railroad regulation, as required by law, shall be paid into the "Railroad Expense Fund", a special fund which is hereby established in the state treasury.

Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of chapter 386 that relate to the powers and duties of the public service commission and the procedure before the public service commission and the courts are hereby made applicable to the motor carrier and railroad safety division. Definitions contained in those chapters shall continue and shall be applied by the motor carrier and railroad safety division as they have been applied prior to July 1, 1985, until changed by law. Wherever the word "commission" is used, the word "division" shall be substituted therefor. Wherever the word "commissioner" is used, the words "administrative law judge" shall be substituted therefor.
