the only SP locomotives i can remember seeing are AC4400CWs, its weird. i can't remember any of them being patched either. i live in on the old L&N(now CSX) in middle tennessee, so that probably explains it. i used to see UP all the time before the economy started sucking ass
I took the SP 9794 from Houston to Hearne back in January. It was in rock service at the time bringing loaded rock to Houston from somewhere up north.
I hate that Union Pacific has repainted so many of the ex-SP locos into UP colors(and/or covered up the 'SP' on the front of the locos w/the UP symbol). :(
Though I remember seeing a recent video somewhere on youtube(can't remember what user posted it) filmed in the last year, where there was an ex-SP loco that still hadn't had been repainted....

SP 9794, if you can find it, is unpatched. It's a GP60, the last 4-axle GP ever built.

There are still about 60 locomotive still in Southern Pacific livery without any patches on them, So they are rare to see them.

Too bad Union Pacific didn't put their unit numbers in Southern Pacific & CNW colors.
