HO G2 AC4400CW, UP #6193

Details: Primed for Grime GPS pod Replaced AC unit in UP yellow Regular spare knuckle holder on rear pilot The Union Pacific acquisition of the Southern Pacific in 1996 saw the transfer of SP newly acquired AC4400CWs to a new railroad. As they were essentially brand new, there was no push to repaint these units and they existed for several years without modification. Eventually the AC4400CWs were renumbered with simple patches over the SP paint, but as this was done on a unit-by-unit basis where they were, the patches all had a measure of uniqueness.
