I saw UPY 126 in Proviso this afternoon, and it's definitely not leftover SP gray. These units are not locomotives any more...there's an engine in there, but it's just for ballast purposes. These are Control Cab Remote Control Locomotives (CCRCL), and will enable any locomotive(s) they're m.u.ed to to be operated by remote control. Both B30-7s and B23-7s have been rebuilt in this fashion, and numbers go as high as UPY 149. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />I'll bet that was the same one! <br />
