Posted Date: July 30, 2021

Dear Premium Customers,

Following notification yesterday regarding temporary empty EMP/UMAX ingate suspension at East Los Angeles, Union Pacific has also developed Los Angeles train plan modifications and terminal alignment that will improve car and chassis accessibility at each domestic terminal in the LA complex. Given the terminal fluidity benefits and improved predictability for customer ingate and outgate flows, the following changes will be implemented next week.  

  • Shipments destined to Global 1 local will be accepted at East Los Angeles until 14:30 PDT Wednesday, August 4. All Global 1 local waybills and ingates thereafter will originate at City of Industry only.
  • Beginning 14:30 Wednesday August 4, all interline shipments via Chicago will be accepted at City of Industry with the following exceptions listed here.
  • The following CSX destinations will continue to ingate at East Los Angeles only: Chambersburg, PA; Kearny, NJ; Northwest Ohio, Springfield, MA.
  • The following NS destinations will continue to ingate at East Los Angeles only: Cincinnati, OH; Croxton, NJ; Harrisburg, PA; Morrisville, PA.

Acknowledging the current need to transition this volume to City of Industry, Intermodal Terminal Reservation (ITR) is updated with additional reservations for City of Industry to Global 1. We encourage customers to avoid potential delays at East Los Angeles by taking advantage of that option immediately, where possible.


Thank you for your assistance. Please contact your Union Pacific representative with any questions.


Sincerely,

Premium Marketing and Sales
