| Description: |
Union Pacific Railroad GP39-2 2353 at Cotter, Arkansas on February 10, 1991, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This unit was built as Kennecott Copper Corp. 752 in January 1977 (c/n 766028-4). As built it had a high visibility cab, but that cab was sheared off in a mining accident. All of the Kennecott GP39-2s were modified by NRE in 1884 by lowering the cabs to almost standard height except this unit, which had the cab replaced with one salvaged from a retired Milwaukee Road SD45. All the modified KCCX units went to the MKT in 1984 as road numbers 380-388 (this unit was MKT 383), becoming UP 2350-2358 starting in 1988, later becoming UP 1200-1208. |
