  • Part two of our series on Union Pacific's Sidney Subdivision in Nebraska covers the eastern half of the line between Sidney and North Platte.
    The double track main line follows Lodgepole Creek and the historic Lincoln Highway (US 30) through charming small towns including Lodgepole, Chappell, and Julesburg (Colorado). It takes a new course following the South Platte River through the famous western town of Ogallala as it heads to its final destination of Bailey Yard at North Platte.
    Monster manifests pushing three miles long ply the rails along with hot-shot Z trains running expedited merchandise across the Corn Husker State, plus coal trains, stack trains, auto racks and more. Our tour coincided with Union Pacific Big Boy number 4014's run across Nebraska on its Summer 2021 Tour and we will take you trackside for the action.
    Our program concludes with fantastic views of Bailey Yard, the largest railroad classification yard in the world. Scenes from the air and the Golden Spike Tower help bring the scope of this operation to the big screen.

    Seeing Big Boy 4014 in a thumbnail for a video on the Union Pacific transcontinental main line and the video being produced by 7Idea Productions is definitely an attention getter. 🙂

    @7idea Productions Aaron, I just found out that 4014 "Big Boy" will once again be going on tour this July, and will visit Utah, Nevada, and California as part of its "Four Corners" tour. Planning on going with my son as it's something he needs to experience in his lifetime.

    Fun fact. Some cities filled complaints with Union Pacific, saying that the train's horns were too loud. The railroad went and installed an FRA approved horn testing location in North Platte Bailey Yard. To the complaints dismay the railroad found that their train horns were actually not loud enough to meet FRA regulations.

    1:34:32 Welcome to North Platte home of this The Largest Yard in The World itself Bailey Yard. The Heart of the UP Network and the center point of the Transcontinental Railroad all trains begin and end here. Every hour 10,000 cars drop down the two hump tracks into the bowl to feed the beast as RCL powered shunt diesels build the trains that will leave to every city in America and in Mexico and Canada. That's why Bailey Yard is important everything we use comes through here.

    Three mile long train. Amazing but I wonder if it really saves money overall. Time to set up and disassemble the manifest, unravelling if there's a derailment or wagon fault in transit etc etc
    Bit like the "Big Wing" debate in the RAF during the Battle of Britain.

      @blake_edwards 3 місяці тому

      There are small differences. Sometimes it's the cab shape or size. Sometimes it's a difference in the engine bay, like the cooling system on the top of the locomotive.

Que flojera ver este vídeo, no veo tv por no estar viendo tanto anuncio publicitario, y este video estubo peor.
