Please remember—if travel isn't as pleasant this year, it's because we're busy doing a gigantic wartime transportation job!
For many years Union Pacific Stages' employees have worked together as a team - drivers, ticket agents, mechanics, depot agents, porters - all striving to give you excellent bus service. That's the goal everyone would like to shoot for this year - but these days the No. 1 job is to provide top-notch transportation for the war effort. So, if holiday travel isn't quite as pleasant as it used to be, please remember - the war effort must come first.
