BILLING CODE P 

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Railroad Administration 

[Docket Number FRA–2021–0016] 

Notice of Application for Approval of 

Discontinuance or Modification of a 

Railroad Signal System 

Under part 235 of title 49 Code of 

Federal Regulations (CFR) and 49 U.S.C. 

20502(a), this document provides the 

public notice that on January 26, 2021, 

Norfolk Southern Corporation (NS) 

petitioned the Federal Railroad 

Administration (FRA) seeking approval 

to discontinue or modify a signal 

system. FRA assigned the petition 

Docket Number FRA–2021–0016. 

Applicant: Norfolk Southern 

Corporation, Tommy A. Phillips, Senior 

Director—C&S Operations, 1200 

Peachtree Street NE, Atlanta, GA 30309. 

Specifically, NS requests permission 

to discontinue a traffic control system 

(TCS) on the Guyandot River Branch 

Line, from milepost (MP) GR 0.2 to MP 

GR 42.5 and MP GB 11.4 to MP GB 0.5, 

and the Morri Branch Line, from MP SK 

0.0 to SK 11.9, on the Blue Ridge 

Division. This area includes control 

points (CPs) Hotwater Road, Paul Green, 

Itmann, Clevenger, New Richmond, 

Jazbo, Pinnacle Junction, Pineville, 

Rockview, Kepler, Mada, Aliff, Indian 

Creek, Simon, Morri Branch Junction, 

Lincoln, Cub Creek Junction, Gilbert, 

Neds, Ben Creek, Pekin, Plunkett, 

Oceana, and eleven automatic signals. 

The main track between MP GR 0.5 and 

MP GR 42.5, MP GB 0.5 to MP GB 11.1, 

and MP SK 0.0 to SK 11.9 will be 

converted to NS Rule 171 operation. 

Operable approach signals will be 

placed at MP GR 2.3 in approach to CP 

Elmore and No. 1 Crossover and MP GB 

2.0 in approach to CP Jerry. The 

signaled sidings within application 

limits will be made non-controlled, 

other than main track. All slide fences 

within the application limits will be 

retired. 

NS states the reason for the proposed 

discontinuance is that operations no 

longer require TCS. 

A copy of the petition, as well as any 

written communications concerning the 

petition, is available for review online at 

www.regulations.gov. 

Interested parties are invited to 

participate in these proceedings by 

submitting written views, data, or 

comments. FRA does not anticipate 

scheduling a public hearing in 

connection with these proceedings since 

the facts do not appear to warrant a 

hearing. If any interested parties desire 

an opportunity for oral comment and a 

public hearing, they should notify FRA, 

in writing, before the end of the 

comment period and specify the basis 

for their request.
