Two more units are being tracked that were delivered in primer. <br /> <br />Any speculation???? The first two are subnumbered 1982 and 1983 for the year the WP and the MP were merged. <br /> <br />The SP was in 1996 and the C&NW was in 1988??? <br /> <br />The new units will probably end up wearing the merge year numbers much like the 2001 and 2002 blue SD70M Olympic units. <br /> <br />Let's hope Tower 55 will build them. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br /> <br />Just a small correction; C&NW was merged into UP in 1995 <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Thanks for the correct date as I could not remember the date and thought it was in the late eighties, with a question mark?? I should have thought about the fact I have a book with the C&NW AC4400's in it that came out in 1994?? Boy, does time fly! <br /> <br />I sure liked the looks of that paint scheme on the AC4400's and the Dash 9's.
