The last couple stops on our tour were Claas Combines and Union Pacific. We started the morning at Claas Cobines. We toured their assembly factory. They receive all their parts from the main factory in Germany. Then they assemble and customize for the customer at the factory in Omaha. The lexicon combine is the most popular in the U.S. Their other smaller machines are more popular in other European countries. It would have been nice to hear more about the history of their company, but the lady in charge of customer relations was out of town.

The last stop of the day before heading to the airport was Union Pacific. An OSU Alumni works here so Matt was able to get us a meeting with the executives. I didn’t realize the wide variety of products they transport.
