The Produce Express is UP's train of refrigerated or cooled goods, fruits vegetables, etc. It's the highest priority train on UP from Oregon to Chicago, and becomes Q090 in Chicago. From there it will go to New York. The only trains prioritized over Q090 are Q110, Q109, and Q108 as far as I know.
When a train is high-priority, it means that it needs to get to its destination quicker than other trains on the system. An intermodal train has a higher priority than coal because it can move faster and contains mail. Q090 has perishable food items, so it needs to get to it's destination as quick as possible.
nice video Q090 is also know as the Union Pacific Fruit Express out west.this train is going to Schenectady. this train carries what we eat.

It is a CSX train, since it runs on a CSX line, it gets a CSX symbol.

@furryfurball1221 I wonder why it isn't Z090/Z091 instead of Q090/Q091
