@Rich Melvin posted:All the Class 1 railroads have power stored. It's a combination of business levels being down and the movement to PSR, Precision Scheduled Railroading. PSR has allowed the railroads to get a bit more efficient, so less power is needed.
FWIW, this video was posted in 2017 and from some googling, UP didn't implement PSR until late 2018.
I'm not saying you or anyone else is wrong - I'm just saying that I think UP has the coin to spend on the steam program, if they wanted.
