Union Pacific Railroad political money — 2014 cycle
Union Pacific Railroad itemized individual contributions on FEC.gov totaled $754,159 in the 2014 election cycle, across 2,156 receipts from 215 donors.

A cycle slice is not the grouping, and the grouping is not a PAC.

Why Union Pacific Railroad and 2014 share a page
This page exists because two FEC dimensions meet: employer/industry grouping Union Pacific Railroad and even-year election cycle 2014. $754,159 is the intersection. $6,248,507 is the grouping’s harvested all-cycle total before the year filter. 2,156 is the 2014 line count. The 2014 donor count is 215 donors. LobbyVault does not convert those integers into a motive, a lobbying total, or a USAspending award.
Open the Union Pacific Railroad 2014 cycle hub for the live overlay of this cut, the Union Pacific Railroad industry hub for the parent grouping, the 2014 election-cycle index for every industry in that year, and All FEC ties for sibling joins. Quote $754,159 when the sentence is about 2014. Quote $6,248,507 when the sentence is about the grouping across cycles. Do not add those two dollar figures; the first is already inside the second.
The 2014 slice for Union Pacific Railroad
In 2014, receipts tagged Union Pacific Railroad sum to $754,159 on 2,156 itemized lines from 215 donors. About $350 per receipt is $754,159 divided by 2,156. About $3,508 per harvested donor is $754,159 divided by 215. FEC even-year cycles run January 1 of the odd year through December 31 of the even year; 2014 names that two-year window, not a single November night.
Two hundred fifteen donors and 2,156 receipts produced $754,159 in 2014 — a high line count relative to dollars, which usually means many modest itemized gifts. Union Pacific Railroad is the employer string, not route-miles and not Surface Transportation Board traffic. Union Pacific PAC spending, if any, is a committee fact on other pages, not this individual-contribution join.
The Union Pacific Railroad grouping beyond 2014
The parent grouping indexes $6,248,507 ($6.2 million rounded). 2014’s $754,159 is 12.1% of that parent. Other even-year cuts exist on other cycle hubs. This packet publishes one cycle integer for this page: $754,159. Do not invent a 2012 or 2016 total from these facts.
Employer strings are filer-entered. Union Pacific Railroad captures whatever collapsed into this key in the harvest. Spelling variants, subsidiaries, and occupation words that look similar sit on other keys unless they matched. Independent expenditures by a committee that shares a brand with Union Pacific Railroad are a different schedule and are not inside $754,159 or $6,248,507.
12.1% is $754,159 divided by $6,248,507. Rounding to $754,159 and $6.2 million does not create extra facts. Use exact integers in a table. Use the rounded forms only as headlines of those same integers.
Limits of an industry × cycle join
This join is not a claim that Union Pacific Railroad bought an election in 2014. It is not a party split; this packet has none. It is not a unique-person census of a workforce. The harvest counts 215 donors in the 2014 slice, and one person can still appear across committees. It is not federal spending under USAspending.gov. Contributions do not fund awards on this page.
Unitemized federal gifts never enter $754,159. State-office campaigns never enter $754,159. Amendments can restate large transfers while most of the 2,156 small lines stay put. After quarterly filings, reread the Union Pacific Railroad 2014 hub. If that hub and this snapshot disagree, FEC.gov controls.
Comparing Union Pacific Railroad in 2014 to another industry requires that other industry’s cycle hub. This packet has one grouping and one cycle. A ranking of industries for 2014 is a different page — the 2014 election-cycle index — not a homemade sort of this file.

The harvested donor count is 215 donors. 2,156 is the line count. $6,248,507 is the parent grouping. None of those fields is a vote total.
Reading Union Pacific Railroad next to the 2014 cycle index
The Union Pacific Railroad 2014 overlay is the live table for this cut. The Union Pacific Railroad industry page is the parent grouping at $6,248,507. The 2014 election-cycle index lists other employer strings in the same two-year window; it is not a license to add those strings to $754,159. All FEC ties holds sibling joins. Use all four links. None of them converts $754,159 into USAspending obligations.
A later bulk file can restate $754,159 without rewriting this paragraph. Treat the hubs as current and this JSON as a packet snapshot. Quote 2014 as an FEC even-year cycle, Union Pacific Railroad as a filer-entered employer or occupation grouping, and 215 donors as a harvested donor count on 2,156 lines. That is the whole join: Union Pacific Railroad × 2014 = $754,159.
