ou're rolling along through mountain
ous western country. Suddenly your train
stops. Ahead a signal light has turned
red. The "talking fence" has flashed its
warning to the engineer.
Technically known as the "slide detector
fence", it is erected parallel to Union Pa
cific tracks as a protection against falling
rocks, trees or other possible obstruc
tions. Any such object striking the fence
breaks an electrical contact, "setting up"
signals miles down the track to warn
trains approaching in either direction. A
trainman must then make a thorough
inspection before trains can proceed-
Union Pacific uses every possible precau
tion to safeguard its passengers and freight
. . . troops and war materials . . . transported
over its Strategic Middle Route uniting
the East with the Pacific Coast.
The "talking fence" is but one of the many
safety devices developed by our nation's
railroads. Such improvements result from
enterprise and initiative; characteristic
American traits that built the Union Paciflo
...that built Your America, land of equal
opportunity for all.
