UP 949 |
| Description: |
Union Pacific #949 was sent to VMV Enterprises, Paducah, Kentucky, in June 1992 to be completely remanufactured; the remanufacture effort included a new 16 cylinder 2000-horsepower EMD 645 engine (replacing the original twin 12-cylinder 1,200-horsepower 567 engines), with an AR10 alternator and a GP38-2 design electrical system, completed in late April 1993. UP #949 was sold to Precision National Corp., Mount Vernon, Illinois, in September 1972; sold to C&NW (#511) in September 1972; sold to METRA, after that agency's takeover of the C&NW Chicago commuter operations; sold to Kasten Rail Car Services; UP acquired the unit (along with an ex UP sleeper) in trade for an ex MP business car, on September 11, 1990, to have a second E-unit to operate with UP 951 on special passenger trains. The Armour yellow E9A (E38-2?) was built in May 1955 |
