A more fluid rail network strengthens the U.S. supply chain. Since 2019, Union Pacific has moved more freight with fewer trains while increasing its speed across the network. Fewer trains moving faster has created real capacity for customers and the economy – improvements that set the stage for a combined Union Pacific–@nscorp railroad to offer more direct routes, reduce congestion at key connection points and provide a stronger, more reliable freight system for American industry and growth.

You aren't just moving freight; you're carrying the legacy of a nation.
