Hi,
Starting out in North Platte, NE going east, where is the next UP crew change location for each of the two lines that split off at Gibbon Jct?
How long does it take the crews to make it to each of the terminals?
Thank You
On the line from Gibbon Jct to Kansas City, Marysville KS is the next crew change. I don’t know how long it takes on this run.
Going from Gibbon Jct to Omaha, The next crew change point is Fremont, NE for the majority of trains. Fremont is part of the Omaha Metro Complex, or OMC for short. Crews from North Platte can run to Fremont, NE, Council Bluffs, IA, or Missouri Valley, IA. It depends on what the train is and where it’s going. When things are flowing reasonably normal, 8 to 10 hours seems to be average. Some do better, some do worse. Lately, more seem to be doing worse.

I wish a future Map Of Month would cover this just as a BNSF map was presented a yr or two ago
That would be a very great idea, maybe someone should mention it to TRAINS.
And it will be as fascinating as the BNSF map.
