Progressive Rail appears to be UP's "ace in the hole" so to speak when they are losing money on a line and/or the current operator bails out. I have seen this happen locally where they brought in Progressive (aka Clackamas Valley Railway) to take over and market the Clackamas Industrial Park so they could abolish the local that was based out of the Clackamas doghouse. About all I've seen move recently are a bunch of stored tank cars and a handful of manifest cars but I may have missed something.
