UP ripping out the MoPac main in Kansas
Author: "Building America" indeed

Union Pacific ripped out the signaled, welded rail, first class mainline of the Missouri Pacific in Kansas to ensure another entity could not use it.

"Building America" indeed! This was destruction of valuable American transportation infrastructure, on par with the legend of ancient Rome sowing the soils of vanquished Carthage with salt as punishment.

Great post on TO: Old MoPac/U.P. line gradually disappeared in '98

How dare un-American Union Pacific cynically co-opt our national symbol, the American flag, on their equipment as a logo. The UP has no allegiance to anyone or anything but profit. Use of the flag should be restricted to democratic, public institutions.
