UP 3002         
UP 3002 was delivered to Western Pacific as GP40-2 3545 in July 1979, becoming UP 900 on May 26, 1985, MP 900 on June 11, 1985, then back to UP 900 on June 26, 1987. In 1990 this unit was sent to M-K for rebuilding as a mother-slug set emerging as UP 3002 on December 20 and after seperating the slug this unit was renumbered UP 1535 in February 2002. The slug was built for KCS as GP30 108 and chopped down into a slug also by MK for UP road service. Note these units still carry cab air conditioners, a WP ordered feature almost always removed by UP.
