To clarify, this is a revenue move for UP. IOW, GGRM
is paying for the move. It's not a freebie.
However, deep inside UP, one person's nose got out of
joint that he wasn't consulted or involved (it's really
none of his business) and whined to Omaha. So, Omaha
killed the move just before the scheduled date.
GGRM is not at fault here. It is 100% UP.
