Back in the 1970’s I attended a party where the two room mates both worked for the railroads in Kansas City. One for the UP the other the MP. This was way before merger. There was lots of railroaders there and the UP guy announced he’d play the two railroad’s company songs.

The UP song was ‘Great Big Rolling Railroad’ – the UP employees knew it was corny but sang along. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRLCUjCVBGI

He then announced the Mopac ‘company song’ and put the second record…..

I thought this was a great company song for the ‘Mop’.
