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 PO 00000 Frm 00087 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 9991 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.

FRA does not anticipate scheduling a public hearing in connection with these proceedings since the facts do not appear to warrant a hearing.
