    Pursuant to Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 235 and 
49 U.S.C. 20502(a), the following railroad has petitioned the Federal 
Railroad Administration (FRA) seeking approval for the discontinuance 
or modification of the signal system or relief from the requirements of

Docket Number FRA-2004-19401

Applicant: CSX Transportation, Incorporated, Mr. N. M Choat, Chief 
Engineer, Communications and Signal, 4901 Belfort Road, Suite 130,

    CSX Transportation, Incorporated seeks approval of the proposed

Track No. 1, between North Winter Park, Florida, milepost A 784.70 and 
Orlando, Florida, milepost A 791.70, on the Jacksonville Division,

(Rule 105), with Rule 46 governing the maximum authorized speed. The 
reason given for the proposed change is to eliminate facilities no 
longer needed in present day operation.
    Any interested party desiring to protest the granting of an 
application shall set forth specifically the grounds upon which the 
protest is made, and include a concise statement of the interest of the 
party in the proceeding. Additionally, one copy of the protest shall be
