Western Railroad Discussion > More Cedar City UT

So, having friends in the area makes visits a sort of automatic excuse. As been discussed before the branch is busy, but it's getting ridiculous. UP falls
into stuff like no one else. A couple months ago GOEX started on a 100+ plus million dollar pastic extrusion plant. It was just announced that American
Packaging is building a similar size clear plastic facility, again 100+ million, right next door. If you're going to build a spur might as well use it!

Sure are a lot of new spurs going in out there plus in nearby Milford , good for UP

I'm really curious as to how UP handles the branch in the near future. Considering the current car counts plus the iron ore the branch
becomes a tail wagging the dog interms of the Salt Lake. The Local no longer makes a Turn most days, it lays over and goes back the
next day. Taffic is going to take another uptick shortly with GOEX and American Packing, Amerigas is increasing their business as is
the ethanol blend facility. When does it become cost affective to station power and a crew at Cedar City? For us it sounds like a
problem to have, I'd bet UP thinks differently.
