To Our Customers,

After a week of generally calm weather across our network, operations remained relatively steady compared to the previous week. We continue to see operational improvements with a small increase in velocity and a further decline in terminal dwell.

Below are some network statistics from last week:

  • Carloadings for the week ending Jan. 24, 2015, were 179,476. This is 1 percent more than the same week last year. 
  • AAR system velocity was 25.5 mph, up 0.2 mph compared to the previous week.
  • System terminal dwell has improved to 29.7 hours, which is down 0.8 compared to the previous week.  
  • In total, we had 297,373 cars online, which is slightly higher than the previous week.

Thank you for your business. Please contact the National Customer Service Center or your Union Pacific representative with any questions.
