Depicting the past, present and future of railroading, the mural is a visual history of the people and machinery responsible for hauling the nation’s freight. It represents Safety, Service and Operational Excellence in action, highlighting Union Pacific’s investments in infrastructure and intermodal growth.
“I think it’s really important when our teams go to work each day, we see who we are and what we do,” said CEO Jim Vena. “We are railroaders. This beautiful mural brings that to life as a reminder to all of us about the legacy we are carrying forward and the future we are building.”
The mural, which was digitally painted and printed on fabric, measures 36 feet by 8 feet and is available for viewing by employees and the general public during regular business hours.
“From the construction of the Transcontinental Railroad and the evolution of locomotive power to the telegraph and the latest technology, this mural colorfully illustrates the growth of the Union Pacific system and the rail industry,” said Patricia LaBounty, Union Pacific Railroad Museum curator.
