Did UP/NS Run a Psgr Special on 4/8/14 Google Earth Say
Author: Sneebly

A friend of mine told me about this one. This is a Google Earth view of the NS west of Brunswick MO (actually just west of HWY V crossing of what appears to be a UP passenger special. imagery is from 4/8/14. was this a run of UP maybe getting trackage rights on the NS? it certainly appears that the next to last car is a domecar. Comments?

Before I made the post I went back to the Western board and Passenger board and looked around for posts about a special on NS with UP power. I saw nothing looking thru April 10 on both boards. Just now I typed in NS UP OCS and found nothing regarding what I was looking for. I also searched for NS UP and Special and it found nothing I was looking for. Find it and give the search parameters that were used.

thought i saw it mentioned, just from recall, i don't know what line this is but people put in elusive titles sometimes


was thinking the UP was looking for alternatives to BNSF trackage rights KC Chicago. Is this line part of any alternative, or was that a different deal than this, thought they ran an off road special? may have been on the CP is probably what i was remembering
