Kearney, Nebraska – Union Pacific Freight Trains (West View)

Virtual Railfan's live train cameras at Kearney, Nebraska, capture the action on Union Pacific's Kearney Subdivision, part of the original Transcontinental Railroad, also known as the Overland Route. Hosted by Bruce Furniture, the cameras include two fixed-view cameras: one facing east towards Omaha and one west towards North Platte. Located at milepost 188.8, this feed showcases up to 80 daily freight trains across three main tracks (Main 1, Main 2, and Main 3, with sidings for The Andersons grain silo), including manifest, intermodal, and locals. To the west, trains enter UP's Bailey Yard in North Platte, the world's largest rail yard, for refueling, crew swaps, and train operations. Kearney's vibrant rail activity, part of the historic Overland Route, makes it a top railfan destination.

This westbound-facing camera provides an excellent fixed view of freight traffic on one of North America's busiest transcontinental rail lines. Watch Union Pacific's varied locomotive consist and cargo-laden consists roll through this operational heartland in near real-time, with direct audio monitoring available via UP's road and dispatcher frequencies (160.410 and 160.740 MHz).
