UP 2531 leads a 23-car MAGBUB
Title:  UP 2531 leads a 23-car MAGBUB
Description:  Designated "C45AH" on the cab. Bit strange...I thought UP's ES44ACs (or C45ACCTE, as they call them) were numbered in the 5000s or 7000s-8000s, and the C45AHs were 8052-8267. Some sources identify this as a Tier 4 unit but it doesn't have the smooth single angle under the radiators that those do.

Old Warriors
Title:  Old Warriors
Description:  The weatherbeaten and heavily tagged 3690 is one of not many UP SD40-2s left that has not been rebuilt to SD40N and renumbered accordingly, like 1990 behind. It was also a direct purchase by UP upon construction in 1980, rather than a merger acquisition.
