Less waiting. More moving. Freight can spend 24-48 hours sitting at railroad interchanges before continuing its journey. Union Pacific's Eric Gehringer breaks down how a seamless transcontinental railroad will eliminate those delays, creating faster, more efficient service for customers and helping the products consumers rely on reach store shelves and front doorsteps sooner. https://t.co/dP6Zbfl02N

Farmers like Ron deserve a railroad that works as hard as they do – and we are building one. Connecting the heartland directly to export markets coast to coast, reducing transit times, lowering shipping costs and giving American agriculture a competitive edge in global markets.

[Union Pacific @UnionPacific]

Saving shippers $3.5 billion annually. Helping retailers keep shelves stocked. Helping American families stretch their dollars further. It's all connected.

Another milestone for America’s Great Connection.

The Surface Transportation Board unanimously denied requests to dismiss the Union Pacific-Norfolk Southern merger application, clearing the way for continued review of the most comprehensive merger analysis ever submitted in support of a major rail transaction. Combined with SMART-MD’s new jobs-for-life agreement, the proposal now has support from a majority of unions representing Union Pacific and @nscorp employees. https://t.co/7lbNFnWCxH

Right now, American farmers pay more and wait longer to get their products to market. A seamless coast-to-coast network will give farmers direct access to more export markets that is faster, cheaper and free of costly handoffs.

What will a seamless coast-to-coast railroad mean for customers? In recent STB filings, shippers pointed to expanded market access, fewer handoffs, stronger supply chains and new opportunities for growth as key benefits of the proposed Union Pacific-@nscorp combination.

The freight economy has spoken. More than 500 customers representing industries that grow, build, manufacture, transport and power America have formally expressed support for the proposed Union Pacific-@nscorp combination, citing the benefits of a seamless transcontinental network.

@TroyFetters @FreddyLA7 Dumbest post ever. Your team has lost to Iowa 10 of the 11 last years!

Faster, more predictable transit times.
That’s what modern supply chains need.
A Union Pacific-Norfolk Southern combination will create more seamless, single-line service, helping freight move more directly from origin to destination with fewer handoffs and greater reliability. In many lanes, that will save shippers 24-48 hours.
Because when every hour matters, a more efficient rail network matters too.

Right now, a shipment crossing the country changes carriers, changes crews, and loses time. Our merger ends that. For the first time, more markets are within reach for American businesses on a seamless railroad, with one accountable partner, from origin to destination.

Today, many long-distance agricultural shipments must be transferred between railroads before reaching their destination. Those interchanges can add time, handling and uncertainty. The Union Pacific-@nscorp combination will connect complementary western and eastern networks, providing farmers, producers, and agricultural shippers with a stronger, more reliable single-line rail option across the country and the world.

America's greatest achievements were built through vision, determination and investment in what's next. Now it’s our turn. Our plan will create new opportunities to connect businesses, strengthen supply chains and move freight more efficiently from coast to coast.

[Union Pacific @UnionPacific]

50% market share? That's not what the data shows.
Opponents keep repeating the claim, but publicly available industry data tells a different story about the Union Pacific-@nscorp combination:
✅ Less than 11% of total U.S. freight transportation
✅ 40% of U.S. rail ton-miles
No matter how you measure it, the numbers don't support the 50% narrative.

Congratulations to Bartlett Grain on the grand opening of the El Camino grain elevator near Sheffield, Illinois. Equipped to load 110-car shuttle trains, the new facility expands grain handling capacity, creates opportunities for local growers, and strengthens connections to domestic and international markets. We're proud to help move America's harvest. 🌾🚂

[Union Pacific @UnionPacific]

We're delivering one seamless coast-to-coast network. With faster shipping, lower costs and a single partner accountable from origin to destination that keeps America's supply chain moving. Reliably, affordably and without interruption.

[Union Pacific @UnionPacific]

For farmers, every mile – and every connection – matters.

With 1.88 million U.S. farms and more than 8,000 off-farm grain elevators, reducing delays and increasing routing flexibility matters at scale. By expanding market access, improving delivery of farm supplies and adding new port options east and west, the Union Pacific-@nscorp merger will help producers move what they grow – further and faster.

Moving more freight with fewer trains — and doing it safely.
In 2025, rail achieved its safest year on record and remains 17 times safer than trucking per ton mile. At the same time, Union Pacific is moving more volume with fewer trains and improving network performance.
So, what’s behind it — and why isn’t train length the full story? Take a closer look at how modern rail is evolving. https://t.co/w1oxiIijnQ
