Both of UP's Olympic Torch SD40-2 units still remain on the UP roster. UP 1896 is now UP 1684 and UP 1996 is now UP 1838.

Yes, they are still running around. You can check HeritageUnits.com as they tracks those two along with some of the other UP special paint schemes.

And right on schedule there is a current picture of UP 1996 here TO in it's current form as UP 1838.
