Found this FP45 on ebay last Christmas and picked it up for $5.00. The frame was cracked and one of the motor mounts was broken. It had a motor but it didn't work. I repaired the frame and motor mount, added a DCC card, and last week found front and rear railings and a few other enhancements for it from Arrow Online. Read its complete story and get another pic of it on my website loco roster page at: http://www.clarkjim.com/engrost.htm With its new motor (from Micro Mark at $19.00) and general overhaul it runs smoothly and reliably. Its a great little powerhouse this full cowl loco. It came with UP markings; UP never received any of the original production, but may have leased or purchased used. jim
