I do love that flag. Although I think they need to make the Union Pacific logo bigger. I'm not a big fan of UP, but I think they have one of the best logo's second only to BNSF. Union Pacific really is a testamate to Amrican inganuity, and the ability of a corperation to stay in business for so long.

Looks like the large flag and the "Building America" slogan are now being applied to the most recent SD59MX (former SD60M) rebuilds.

UP #9900-9909 have the standard "Union Pacific" lettering on their long hood, while #9915 and #9916 have the large flag and UP's slogan.
