I don't know if UP is using this for that segment or not, but railroads are moving to the "Track Warrant" system where the dispatcher give the train exclusive rights for a section of track. The dispatcher keeps account of what trains are on which tracks on a computer, the engineer and conductor keeps account on paper or on the computer in the locomotive cab. By using the "Track Warrant" system the railroad is able to eliminate the cost of maintaining the signals and the property taxes associated with the signal equipment.
