Dear Intermodal Customer,

Union Pacific is experiencing an increase in empty activity in our East Los Angeles ramp which is causing significant congestion.  In an attempt to maintain ramp fluidity and operational functionality, empty ingates will be suspended from East Los Angeles, effective Thursday, March 10 at 12:00 PT. Customers are able to return empty equipment to LATC, City of Industry, ICTF, and Montebello. Empty reservations will be granted from all Los Angeles Metro locations.

Union Pacific will continue to monitor fluidity at East Los Angeles, and as soon as congestion subsides, empty ingates will be accepted. Customers will be notified via intermodal bulletin.

If you have any questions please contact your Union Pacific representative.
