Holiday Schedule
Labor Day Holiday Operating Plan - Updated August 26, 2010
Union Pacific plans to have modified operations during the Labor Day holiday weekend. This includes operations on Monday, September 6, 2010 through Tuesday, September 7, 2010.
During this time, we will operate coal, soda ash and potash, grain, military and rock trains. The intermodal and automotive network will have reduced operations with selected annulments and consolidations depending on volumes. Between 7:00 a.m. on Monday, September 6, 2010 and 7:00 a.m. on Tuesday, September 7, 2010, most manifest and perishables trains will be held at origin. Trains enroute will operate to destination. Some yard and local operations may be curtailed based on traffic levels and customer needs. Critical customer-specific switching requests will be protected.
Locations at gateways will coordinate interchange operations with connecting railroads at Mexico, Eastport, Chicago, St. Louis, Salem, Sydney, Kansas City, Memphis and New Orleans.
If your facility requires service during the holiday, please open a Problem Log on our website prior to close of business on Wednesday, September 1, 2010. You may also contact Customer Service at 1-800-272-8777 to have them open a Problem Log on your behalf. Feedback will be provided regarding the availability of service over the Labor Day holiday.
Thank you for your cooperation. On behalf of all of the employees of Union Pacific, we would like to wish you a safe and happy holiday weekend.
