## About This Content
It is harvest time again, long grain trains moving through typical Nebraska
farming country to bring in this year’s harvest. The Route centres on North
Platte Nebraska, including the Bailey Yard.
Bailey Yard is the world’s largest railroad classification yard. Owned and
operated by the Union Pacific Railroad (UP), Bailey Yard is located in North
Platte, Nebraska. The yard is named after former Union Pacific President Edd
H. Bailey.
The gigantic Bailey Yard covers a total expanse of 2,850 acres (11.5 km2) and
is over 8 miles (13 km) in length and 2 miles (3.2 km) wide. The yard is made
up of some 315 miles (507 km) of track, including 18 receiving and 16
departure tracks.
Bailey Yard handles over 10,000 railroad cars every day. Approximately 3,000
cars are sorted daily in the yard’s two humps and 114 bowl tracks. Because of
the enormous amount of products that pass through Bailey Yard, Union Pacific
describes the yard as an “economic barometer of America.”
Besides being home to two humps, the yard also includes a locomotive fueling
and servicing center that handles more than 8,500 locomotives per month, a
locomotive repair shop that can repair 750 locomotives monthly, and a car
repair facility that handles nearly 50 cars daily.
Union Pacific employs more than 2,600 people in North Platte, most of whom are
responsible for the day-to-day operations of Bailey Yard.
