And UP didn't?

It has always been so. And always will be.
Even during the 17 years the NS program was dead,
the Milwaukee Mafia couldn't stop drooling over it.

The NS program is a great thing, but they are rookies
at this compared to the only Class 1 that has never,
ever dieselized.

As they did when CP started their modest program,
Trains acts as though no one has ever thought of using
a steam locomotive for anything but fantrips.

HELLO!! UP was doing things 35-40 years ago with
their locomotives that the newbies still haven't
tried, but now say they are going to. It appears that
CP and now NS have studied the UP's methods and
policies and emulated a lot of them. For which UP
gets not even acknowledgement, much less credit.
