It's my dream to become a locomotive engineer. How do I go about it?

Union agreements require hiring of locomotive engineers from promoted conductors or trainpersons who already work for Union Pacific. Licensed class 1 engineers must first work for UP as trainpersons before being promoted. For an overview of the experience, skills and job duties required for Train Crew, see the Train Crew/Train Service information on our Jobs site.

I would like to see information just for employees.

UP employees may access the UP Employees site with a User ID and password. If you are currently a UP employee and would like more information about the Employees site, or help in obtaining an ID and password, call OSS for assistance.

Why can't I read internal publications such as UPOnline on this site?

UPOnline is written for employees, rather than a general audience. Its content is considered too specialized for this site. The UP Employees site features postings of UPOnline.
