Union Pacific is fundamentally a toll road business with trains. They own irreplaceable infrastructure in strategic corridors, generate consistent cash flows, and have returned capital to shareholders for over a century. The business model is simple, the competitive position is strong, and the long-term trends (nearshoring, environmental focus) seem favorable.
However, this isn't a high-growth tech stock. It's a mature, capital-intensive business that grows roughly in line with the economy. The excitement comes from operational improvements, market share gains, and the potential for rail to benefit from supply chain reshoring.
