OMAHA, Neb. – Most Union Pacific employees will switch from wearing orange to green safety vests. The railroad said it believes the green vests afford better visibility than traditional orange.
Workers that maintain structures must continue to wear orange per Federal Railroad Administration guidelines, but the rest of UP’s employees will switch to green.
