There has been a rumor circulating for a while about Union Pacific starting a new heavy-haul freight service to minimize wear and tear on rails.

Just thought you might appreciate the challenge for modeling.

I think someone wrote a song about that picture

It Starts." I'm leaving on a Jet Train don't know if I'll be back again"

You're staying up too late again, Dan.

It's all starting to make sense to me now

Union Pacific's abbreviation is UP which is, of course, an unmistakable reference to the word "up". Hmmm.

I think I'm finally get'n the hang of this railroady stuff.
