Let's at least use proper language and terminology. This is Railroad.net and we should know better.

The track has never been abandoned.

It's officially out of service, which means UP doesn't have to maintain the signals or grade crossing protection. The track can't be pulled up until it's abandoned.

From Holiday Inn Express Clearfield PA--

Mr. Olesen, the Phoenix-West to Yuma route is not shown on the UP System map.

Correct. Tennessee Pass doesn't show up on the UP System Map, either.

They don't show out of service track. But out of service is not abandoned. It's a step or two before that.
