As Union Pacific grew as a railroad, so also did its non-rail business.

In January 1969 — just five months before the 100th anniversary of the driving of the Golden Spike — UP formed a parent corporation for its subsidiaries: the Union Pacific Railroad and its other non-railroad operating companies.

The corporate parent was formed due to concerns about possible nationalization of the railroads, many of which were failing.
