Yeah, they're rebuilds.  Here is an excerpt from a post made over on MexList quite a while ago;

posted by Daniel Osborne in October 2001:

Heres a report from International rail journal for october

Peru:  MPI de Mexico, a subsidiary of Wabtec, United States, has signed a $US 3.9
million contract to remanufacture five C30M-7 locomotives for Ferrocarril
Central Andino.

The locomotives appear to be ex-SP or Cotton Belt.
