Re: Why is UP's ZG2OA so short?

The ZG2OA/ZOAG2 run on a very tight schedules with their UPS traffic in both trailers and 53' boxes. I've read its the hottest train pair on the Overland. The ZG2LT varies 4-12 hours behind the Oakland train over Donner and is significantly longer.

The ZOAG2 leaves Oakland after midnite and has its share of pigs. The ZLTG2 is indeed a very long seperate train that usually features a cut or two of pigs/cofc among the all 53' stacks. There is also a KLTG3 that runs when needed with Oakland international traffic on the headend that is brought to Stockton the night before on the IOAST via Altamont.
