Western Railroad Discussion > A patched UP Motor?Date: 01/26/10 15:30 A patched UP Motor? Author: railtime Watching Uncle Pete pick up cars from Kyle today and the SD stopped in front of me and it looks like it has been patched (re-numbered). histroy?
thanks for looking john  Date: 01/26/10 15:37 Re: A patched UP Motor? Author: UPNW2-1083 From the outline of the old numbers it looks like it was the 6348 before being renumbered.-BMT
Date: 01/26/10 15:51 UP's Renumbered SD60 Fleet Author: espeeboy Correct, UP2503 = UP6348.
All but three of the UP fleet of 279 SD60M's (two units wrecked/retired) have been patch or repaint renumbered into the UP 2240-2520 series. The remaining un-renumbered patch booth "scragglers" are the UP6106, UP6165 and UP6341.

That is one of UP's infamous low-point numeral typeface #4's barely legible under the peeling patch... Date: 01/27/10 20:27 Re: A patched UP Motor?

Yes, I see now. The point does look a lot like a 2 unless you look super close. Rob |
