Word on the street is someone in Omaha bought a ticket to somewhere.

It will focus on the southern international route.

So once again this site is deleting posts. I asked a specific question about if the director of mech ops or the AVP of mech locomotive were gone as well. Quit censoring posts.

long live Jenks!!!! She's finally opening back up!!

Such a great idea, but like the UP, it is so manipulated and info is so twisted to the point that it’s totally useless. This post will be deleted in 3,2,1.....gone.

How many people want to see the CEO and COO gone. I'm an ex UP employee just like most of you. I just want to see how many positive votes this gets. No comments necessary.
