Only thing better is being there in person! I've been there a number of times, and few things are better! Date: 06/17/21 22:55 Re: UP Mains Busy near Brady, NE, 17 June 2021 Author: coach Is there a slow order in that area?? Or a speed restriction??

Once I got 844 and our train thru the crossovers I opened her up and we flew around several trains on the North track. That was a nice feeling.

Dispatcher mentioned he had three westbound coal empties tied down on track one (right) between FARR and MAXWELL (east of North Platte, Nebraska) that morning.
