Southern Plains Flooding

Announcement Number: CN2016-13
Categories: General Announcements
Posted Date: May 31, 2016

To Our Customers,
 
During the Memorial Day weekend, Union Pacific had multiple subdivisions in Texas that experienced outages due to flooding in the Southern Plains. All but one have been returned to service with the final one expected to open by this evening. We are working through a backlog of trains, and customers with shipments traveling through Texas should expect delays of up to 24 hours.
 
As detailed on the map, more rain is expected in the Southern Plains over the next five days. We will continue to stage resources in the area and respond to weather-related outages as needed. We will continue to provide customers with updates as conditions warrant.
