    It is hard to believe how flexible rails are but watching the Big 10 bit sure makes a believer out of me. I never thought of rails as being flexible but it makes sense that they are in the direction, as opposed to the verticle load-bearing direction. Amazing science. Thanks for the extended view of it.

    The very first UP engine set is still the old paint job. UP is removing the U.S. flag from the side because they are all stickers, and difficult to maintain. So when the engines go in for their heavy maintenance, they will come out with a very similar paint scheme. Instead of the U.S. flag on the entire side, it will say UNION PACIFIC.

    • @johnschneider3082
      @johnschneider3082 Рік тому +2

      I guess it’s asking to much to instead of the U.S. flag being a sticker,how about painting it on. Or is that being too patriotic, or politically incorrect. Can’t proudly display the flag,it offends some people.
