Houston Mechanical

Is not looking good. VP Big Tom is targeting Houston for a shutdown. Apparently because it has too many people and because it is in close proximity to other shops in the area. Any words on this.

"Union Pacific values safety above all else, and our employees understand we will not sacrifice the well-being of our team for productivity. "
