Union Pacific running donner pass wrong: YA or NAY?

The short answer is yes.

Im just saying that I think Union Pacific doesn't have the experience in heavy snowfall, steep grade conditions that cotton belt, southern pacific, and Denver and rio grande western did plus they just don't have the romantic history with mountains like southern pacific on the donner pass or Mojave. Or D&RGW in the Rockies in Colorado. Sorry to y'all's Union Pacific fanboys who are all bout safety and "MADERN DAI SCIENCE" well I say $$$$ the ditch lights and bring back the classification lights. So all safety and personal preferences aside I ask again IS UNION PACIFIC RUNNING DONNER PASS RIGHT?!?!? As in 1970's-1980's safety rules not modern day.

Says the same guy who thinks "Jointed Rail is fraud"

Really, it seems that UP fanboys are far and between while the SP crowd, at least some of them on this board, moan and complain about how UP destroyed a railroad that was merged out of existence years before the so called SP foamer was even born.
