Can anyone identify this invasive plant in our lawn and how to get rid of
it?

Looks like common toadflax AKA butter-and-eggs (Linaria vulgaris).
Related to snapdragons. Can spread aggressively. I see it growing
along the railroad tracks when I walk into town.

I just looked it up and found this:

It is Yellow Toadflax.

Once again, Thanks

Dave
