The UPS problem on Union Pacific is two-fold. First, UP hasn't been meeting its delivery commitments, so in order to salve that, they're going to do some trucking..... however the plot thickens... The UP train is such a hot, expedited rocket that it causes havoc with all of the overtakes on double track on the Central Corridor as well as the meets and overtakes on single track (Sunset / Golden State Route). Other trains go in the hole well ahead to avoid delaying the UPS train. Once the UPS train clears, the disptacher has to get the RR moving again. Basically it leaves a wake of destruction behind it. The RR's cry like babies when they have to do this for Amtrak, but will sign-up to do it for UPS. In a dubious homage to the Blue Streak, some who end up in the UPS back-wash, in-affectionately call it the "The Brown Streak." [xx(]
