1986-2001 Shield and Logotype
Official UP Identifiers
The company was built from a need to link a nation east and west more than 140 years ago. Its logo, the Union Pacific Shield, is now synonymous with customer service and partnership. The shield's history is not only a symbol of strength forged from determination in adversity, but also a symbol of the American heritage.
