WOW! What a catch! UP 3029, the LAST EX-CNW SD40-2 ON A UP MANIFEST!! Must see!!!

Nicce Shot, But did they remove the nose gong before painting in UP? All CNW SD-40-2s had nose gongs. I've got a book somewhere that has all the renumbers, I'm gonna locate it.

Sad to say, but 3029 blew up in August and it's sitting at North Little Rock for the Life Extension program now...

Luckily there are 5-6 ex-CNW SD40s running in Texas yet.

I have no idea. All I know is that the SD40-2 is in Des Moines Iowa right now on a UP local.

[thetrainman407]

Thank you sir, it was totally unexpected.

Awesome video! So that is the LAST SD40-2 that UP has or just the last ex-CNW unit they have in operation? Thumbs up! Oh that unit looks good too!

[thetrainman407]

Thanks Gene. I do believe that UP has several other Ex-CNW SD40-2s in storage (I'm pretty sure there are a couple on the Bailey Dead Line) But this is the last one left in opperation, at least for the time being. Thanks a lot Gene!
