August 11, 1922
Iron County Railroad applied to the Utah Public Utilities Commission to build and operate a railroad serving its iron ore properties. (Utah PUC case 577)

August 23, 1922
Union Pacific, and its leased Los Angeles & Salt Lake subsidiary, protested the application by Iron County Railroad.

"That public convenience and necessity do not require the construction and operation of a line of railroad by the Iron County Railroad Company, as prayed for, which it is proposed to be constructed primarily for the individual needs and requirements of the Columbia Steel Corporation; neither do they require the construction and operation of two lines of railroad into this territory, as the amount of revenue to be derived from all of the freight and passenger business to be developed in this territory for many years to come will not be adequate to pay the expense of operating a single line of railroad, and one line of railroad will be fully adequate to serve the needs of said territory."
