Amtrak runs over BNSF here in Lincoln and it startled me this morning - it was almost to the minute on time. Generally it runs about 2-3 hours late!

Maybe a right-wing conspiracy, but more inclined to think it is on Amtrak's side.

But these gentlemen will set us both straight!

U.P. delaying Amtrak

Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, September 2, 2003 11:10 AM

When ever I ride Amtrak-which is quite often, and I'm unfortunate enough to be on the U.P. tracks, the delays seem to be rather intentional. Can anyone tell me why the U.P. delays passenger trains so much? Also, if there are any attorney's out there that are irriatated also-let me know-would a class action law suit get U.P.'s attention with this problem.
