Union Pacific Railroad

The Union Pacific- Norfolk Southern merger will enhance rail competition. Period.

Single-line service across 10,000 lanes. Faster, more reliable transit. Less complexity. Lower costs. And a real opportunity to win share back from trucks. Competition doesn’t shrink when we get better – it expands. We’re ready to prove it.
