Before GRUENDER, BOWMAN, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges.
                       ____________

PER CURIAM.

     Cornelius Brown appeals the district court’s1 adverse grant of summary
judgment on his Title VII race-discrimination claims against his former employer,

      1
       The Honorable Billy Roy Wilson, United States District Judge for the Eastern
District of Arkansas.
Union Pacific Railroad (UPR), which terminated him in May 2011. After careful
review, we agree with the district court that UPR presented a legitimate,
nondiscriminatory reason for terminating Brown--his failure of drug tests, in violation
of company policy--and that he did not present any admissible evidence creating a
genuine issue as to whether UPR’s stated reason was merely a pretext for unlawful
discrimination. See Twymon v. Wells Fargo & Co., 

, 935 (8th Cir. 2006)
(this court has consistently held that violating company policy is legitimate,
nondiscriminatory rationale for terminating employee); see also Green v. Dormire,

, 921 (8th Cir. 2012) (grant of summary judgment is reviewed de novo).
We also agree with the district court’s analysis and conclusions regarding Brown’s
allegations that he was denied training and promotions because of his race.

      We thus affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
