With more than 32,000 miles of track covering 23 states in the western two-thirds of the U.S., those charged with inspecting and maintaining track at @UnionPacific (UP) have their work cut out for them. #RTSMag #RailwayAge #UnionPacific #track rtands.com/freight/how-un…


Currently in a back-and forth with @QuantumHealth1 after they explained medical process authorizations are shared by *fax* and *U.S. Mail* only. Is it 1985? How disappointing they can’t operate with modern day technology.

Union Pacific was the presenting sponsor for the 2024 Heartland Pride Parade over the weekend. Over 100 employees and their families marched with members of BRIDGES, UP's LGBT Employee Network, to share pride and celebrate diversity and acceptance with the Omaha community.

Thank you Michael J. Fox for making our dream come true 🩵


When oh when will @united stop using the CRJ200? Pure agony for passenger comfort.


Data matters.

Safely transporting chemicals starts with prevention and preparedness. Between 2018 and 2023, railroads experienced significantly fewer incidents and injuries related to hazardous materials compared to other transportation modes. Learn more: up.com/aboutup/esg/bu…

Two particular highlights: •SAFETY: Union Pacific's reportable personal injury and reportable derailment rates both improved. •SERVICE: Quarterly freight car velocity was 203 daily miles per car, a 4% improvement.

Union Pacific's focus on our Safety, Service and Operational Excellence strategy is building a solid foundation for long-term growth. UP CEO Jim Vena reflects on our first quarter results in this letter to our employees, which you can read at up.com/aboutup/commun… .

UP Community nonprofits: consider applying!

Applications are now open for Union Pacific's Community Ties Giving grant program! These provide grants that align with the railroad’s priority cause areas in safety, workforce development, community vitality and environmental sustainability. up.com/aboutup/commun…



Opportunities for Nebraska agencies continue in 2024.

In every community, first responders are the first line of defense and valued partners if an incident occurs. As part of our goal to be the best in safety, in 2023, more than 6,400 first responders in railroad communities across our network were trained in derailment response.
