From the pages of Purchasing Magazine Online: <br /> <br />http://www.manufacturing.net/pur/index.asp?layout=document&doc_id=135293&industry=Logistics&industryid=2150 <br /> <br />Union Pacific broadens restrictions on shipment volumes <br /> <br />-- 8/24/2004 <br /> <br />Rail carrier Union Pacific said it is broadening the restrictions on volumes it currently has in <br />place due to extreme increases in demand for its services. The company will implement an <br />allocation system for certain shipments through key terminals, as well as an overall reduction <br />in train starts that will likely impact each of the company’s six commodity groups. UP handled <br />more carloads in the second quarter than in any other quarter in its history and expects the <br />growth to continue through the peak shipping season, which has impacted the service levels <br />UP can offer its shippers. <br /> <br />-David Hannon, associate editor <br /> <br />
