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. |

Description: |
A freshly painted MP15AC idles at the Davidson Yard ready tracks after being serviced and is ready for the next assignment. Delivered to Southern Pacific as SP 2708 MP15AC in August 1975, this switcher would keep the same number until November 19, 2001 when it was patched UPY 1437. On October 6, 2010, UPY 1437 rolled out of the paint booth at North Little Rock fully repainted in Armor Yellow and Harbor Mist Gray. |

UPY 1476 |
Description: |
This former SP MP15AC wears an MP15N designation on the cabside after the addition of NEXIS control system. Aside from control system upgrades, no other changes are made to the locomotive (to my knowledge) but the fresh paint does look quite nice. |

Description: |
SP 2740 MP15AC is idling with an SW1500 at Englewood Yard on a cloudy afternoon. 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. |
