UNION IACIFIC IMPROVEMENTS

CHICAGO, June 6.-Double track
construction on the Union Pacific has
been undertaken this year on a scale
exceeding anything attempted before

and Green River, Wyo., will be added
nearly 20 0miles of second track now

The vast undertaking known as the
Lane cut off between South Omaha
and Lane, Neb., although only eleven
miles in length, is the NEST heroic fea
ture of the Union Pacific Improvement
programme under way. This line nee
essitates 5000, 900 cubic yards Of road
bed excavation and calls for fills of
from 300,0 600 to 100000 cubic yards.
TIL ecuts ar eof equally huge proper
tions. Tn elargest is a mile long with
an extreme depth of eighty-seven feet.
Two-thirds of the grading is finished
and the whole undertaking will be
completed this year. Tn ecut off saves
nearly nine miles over the old main
line by way of South Omaha and Gil
more.
From Lane to Valley double tracking
was completed late last year. This fall
will see the completion of another big
stretch of double track nearly fifty
miles in length from Valley to Benton.

The next big stretches of double track
ing are between Silver Creek and Lock
wood, a distance of thirty-eight miles;
Aida to Buda, Twenty-Five miles, and
Rawlins to Wamsutter, Wyo., forty one
miles. By the end of 1907 the Union
Pacific will have a continuous double
track in operation from Council Bluffs
to Watson's- ranch near Kearney, a

When all these improvements are
completed, together with others under

much as this route has already reduced
