Dear Union Pacific Customer, 

The following changes will take effect July 1, 2016:

UP is making the following additions to UP 6004 by creating two new items 9622.01 for system cars and 9622.02 private cars:

If a Unit Train is held for more than 6 hours, system equipment will be charged at $600 per hour and private equipment will be charged at $500 per hour after AND the following flat fees will also apply - 24 hours or less $2000, more than 24 hours held an additional $7000 will be assessed.

If a train is held for more than 6 hours, UP will charge back to hour 1 from when a train is first held. Additionally, laydown charges will apply to both loaded and empty unit trains. In those cases where a unit train has a mix of system and private cars, the hourly charge will default to the system car laydown rates.
