UP Local Train Switching |
Description: |
All 3 of the pictured locomotives are now off UP's roster. All are predecessor units, CNW, MP, and SP/SSW, respectively. Hard to believe I got to ride and operate them at 12 years old, and now here I sit with every last unit in the photo gone from the UP. 1611 is still operating in the NRE Lease Fleet as NREX 2902. |

UP Local Assigned Locomotives |
Description: |
Here's UP 107, the only B23-7 with an EMD Cab, applied by Mo-Pac after a wreck at Gorham, IL in May 1978 when the unit was only 5 months old. It was used as a local unit in Bluff back in 2002. Sadly, it was retired on April 26, 2005. It became a rebuild core, and was rebuilt into RP20GE Genset UPY 2678 in July 2007, which still rides around on this very frame and trucks. See a picture of it here: http://www.trainweb.org/gensets/railpower/upy/2678.html . |
