UPY 1428
Title:  UPY 1428
Description:  Delivered to Milwaukee Road as MP15AC 444 in January 1976, this switcher became Soo 1510 when the former merged into the latter. In December 1993 Union Pacific took possession of this Milwaukee veteran becoming UP 1428 until being reassigned to UP Yard and renumbered UPY 1428 in May 2001. UP considers this unit an MP15N after wiring upgrades, unfortunetly this did not include a trip to the paint booth.

SP 2740 is notable for keeping her full SP light package well into 1995 and for having an amber beacon, recently repainted red paint, non standard font used for "2740" below the headlights, a "Kansas City" stencil below the cabside road number, a silver horn, and recently repainted white handrail ends. Delivered to SP in September 1975, this switcher would keep the same number throughout the life of Southern Pacific becoming UPY 1468 on May 31, 2002.
