Amtrak runs two trains today that are not welcomed on Union Pacific tracks, the Texas Eagle and the Sunset Limited. It seems like there isn't enough room for either train along UP's lines. It is interesting to note that the Eagle between Dallas and Fort Worth has had to detour at times using the former Rock Island line north of the former Texas and Pacific line. DART and the T, run the Trinity River Express on the former Rock Island line, which is single railed, while the UP mainline is double railed. But having double rail doesn't mean much when UP hog laweds it.
