Round House Closed as Move Power Cuts Sidneys Force
An order from Superintendent Higgins of the Union Pacific abandoned the Sidney round house, putting eighteen employees out of work. Most of the facility’s tools and trains were moved to North Platte, with engines running between North Platte and Cheyenne, services disrupted, payroll cut to about 8500 monthly, and several specified workers laid off while a handful retained or recalled as operations wind down.
