Two things, first, I don't think UP has a major motive power shortage or I would have hjeard about it by now, secondly UP (and the rest of the Big 6) can't really purchase many engines until the new EPA Tier 2 emissions law to come into effect on January 1st, 2005 (After that date only the ES40DC, ES44AC, and SD70ACe will be left, the rest don't meet Tier 3 standards), if any railroad wants to buy SD70M's, SD70MAC's, AC4400CW's, or C44-9W's they have to do it <i>now</i> so the engines can be finished before 2005.
