Notice of Application for Approval of Discontinuance or 
Modification of a Railroad Signal System

    In accordance with Part 235 of Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations 
and 49 U.S.C. 20502(a), this document provides the public notice that 
by a document dated August 26, 2014, the Union Pacific Railroad Company 
(UP) petitioned the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) seeking 
approval for the discontinuance or modification of a signal system. FRA 
assigned the petition Docket Number FRA-2014-0092.
    Applicant: Union Pacific Railroad Company, Mr. Neal Hathaway, AVP 
Engineering-Signal, 1400 Douglas Street, MS 0910, Omaha, NE 68179.
