About This Content

The Battle for Sherman Hill delivers the ultimate railroading experience on Union Pacific’s legendary and historic crossing of America’s Continental Divide. With “The Battle for Sherman Hill,” you will tackle the challenges of moving heavy freight throughout the decades, from the steam era to the railroading of today!

Just as it was when constructed as part of the Transcontinental Railroad, Sherman Hill today is one of America’ busiest and most vital rail lines and is host to scores of Union Pacific intermodal, manifest, and unit trains each and every day.

To bring more than half-a-century of railroading to life, “The Battle for Sherman Hill” includes multiple iconic locomotives from Union Pacific’s fabulous Big Boy and Challenger steam locomotives to the railroad’s unique “Big Blow” gas-electric-turbines to contemporary GE ES44ACs and EMD SD70ACe diesels!

To capture the verve and challenges of railroading across Sherman Hill, nine all-new career scenarios that recall the steam, turbine, and diesel eras on the Union Pacific have been created.
