Both the BNSF and NS have previously advertised on Cable TV, but account the recession have "scrubbed" their programs. Now the UP has "picked up the ball". I have seen UP sponsorship at a "ticker tape" segment on CNBC, and now tonight a 30 second "spot" voiced by (I think) actor Fritz Weaver that was airing on Fox's "O'Reilley Factor"

The same ad also has aired on CNBC. I now think the "voice over" is done by actor Sam Elliott.

Welcome to the forum Mr. Norman. Nice to have you with us!
I missed the Factor tonight, but will the "ad" air again?
