UP 556

Name	Type	Comments	Date

Tony Fernandez	General	This is the former UP GP38-2 #2056, bought new by the UP in Apr 1975 and r/n #556 in Jul 2001. External changes since new are the installation of smaller (now standard) plow and a rooftop air-conditioner (and the removal of the strobe that was centered on the cab roof), and of course, the now yellow frame sill stripe replacing the former red stripe. One surprise when comparing photos is the installation of the two additional exhaust stacks (similar to the former MOPAC units). ATHEARN produced a model of this unit in its original number.	3/14/2011 12:55:19 PM
