(CFR)part 235 and 49 U.S.C. 20502(a), the following railroad has petitioned the Federal Railroad Administration
(FRA)seeking approval for the discontinuance or modification of the signal system or relief from the requirements of 49 CFR part 236, as detailed below.

The Union Pacific Railroad Company seeks approval of the proposed modification of the Traffic Control System

The modification consists of the discontinuance and removal of three controlled signals: “R,” “LA,” and “LB,” and the replacement of a power-operated switch with a hand-operated switch and a leaving signal.
