[Docket Number FRA–2014–0045]
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 (CFR)
and 49 U.S.C. 20502(a), this document
provides the public notice that by a
document dated April 29, 2014, the
Wisconsin Central Limited (WC)
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–
0045.
Applicant: Wisconsin Central
Limited, Mr. Thomas L. Brasseur,
Manager S&C, Engineering Department,
Southern Region, 1625 Depot Street,
Stevens Point, WI 54481.
WC, a subsidiary of Canadian
National Railway (CN), seeks approval
of the proposed discontinuance and
removal of a traffic control system (TCS)
between Milepost (MP) 1.7, (North
Collingwood) and MP 1.0 (South
Collingwood) on the Missabe
Subdivision, Duluth, MN. The TCS will
be removed between northward
approach signals A8R, A6R, and A18R
and the Collingwood northward
absolute signals. All TCS listed will be
changed to yard limits. Control Points
(CP) North Collingwood, Collingwood,
and South Collingwood will be
reconfigured into one, CP Collingwood,
by the elimination of existing controlled
switches, the installation of a new
controlled switch, and the removal of
controlled signals that govern
movements over track with no
associated switches. New TCS limits
will begin and end at CP Collingwood.
The reason for the proposed changes
is that the northward signals and the
associated track circuits for the
approach to Collingwood present a
safety hazard to employees as well as
the motoring public on Interstate 35 (I–
35). Part of this section is located on the
ore docks over I–35, which results in no
place of safety in which an employee
can clear the tracks due to the drop-off
on each side. If an employee were to
slip and fall, the fall could potentially
be onto I–35. Any material or equipment
accidentally dropped could fall to I–35
striking vehicular traffic.
A copy of the petition, as well as any
written communications concerning the
petition, is available for review online at
www.regulations.gov and in person at
