Dear Intermodal Customer,

On March 30, 2016, Union Pacific issued customer announcement IM2016-96, which allowed empty ingates at our East Los Angeles ramp. Since then, Union Pacific has experienced an increase in empty activity at 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 Saturday, April 9 at 8:00 PT. Customers are able to return empty equipment to Montebello, COI, LATC then ICTF.

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.
