[Docket Number FRA-2015-0058]


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

    In accordance with Part 235 of Title 49 of the Code of Federal 
Regulations (CFR) and 49 U.S.C. 20502(a), this document provides the 
public notice that by a document received June 19, 2015, the Canadian 
National Railroad (CN) petitioned the Federal Railroad Administration 
(FRA) seeking approval for the discontinuance or modification of a 
signal system. FRA assigned the petition Docket Number FRA-2015-0058.
    Applicant: Canadian National Railroad, Mr. Corey Turner, S&C 
Supervisor, 297 Rivergate Drive, Memphis, TN 38109.
    The CN seeks approval of the discontinuance of the Automatic Block 
Signal (ABS) system from milepost (MP) 398.2 to MP 403, on the Memphis 
Subdivision, in Memphis, TN. The reason for the discontinuance is that 
the ABS system is no longer needed for operations.
    A copy of the petition, as well as any written communications 
concerning the petition, is available for review online at 
www.regulatons.gov and in person at the U. S. Department of
