UP engineers need to learn how to share

| November 7, 2010 6:00 AM

Those Union Pacific engineers have class, with no big egos, as surely they took instructions on public relations. When the northbound train needs to pause for a minute or 30 before getting clearance to cross the BNSF tracks at the intersection north of town, it is way more classier to creep up 200 yards closer and block both the Boyer and Division crossings than it is to stop short of Boyer so that at least one crossing is open. Those choo-choo drivers rock.
