Eastern Railroad Discussion > How many of the 90MAC's on NS retained UP lettering?Date: 07/04/15 08:05 How many of the 90MAC's on NS retained UP lettering? Author: EH49 I have shot a few of these now and this is the first one I have seen that more or less had its UP name showing...though Black lined out. How many are like this? This unit was Eastbound on 10G through West Tarentum, Pa this morning on the Conemaugh Line. This was a bonus while awaiting 66W with the PRR that was running behind 10G.

Author: ClubCar All that I have seen have had either the letters removed or have been painted over with fresh yellow paint. Even the ex-CSX units on Norfolk Southern have had the CSX painted over in blue paint that I have seen in operation.

Author: Mberry NS 7303 still has Union Pacific lettering on the long hood, albeit with a line over it. This shot is from Montreal just yesterday afternoon. NS 7303 is trailing on CN 529 (aka CP 931/NS 31T). I have also shot other NS SD90's that sill have the 'we will deliver' slogan.
