Delivered to Chicago & Northwestern as CNW 1307 MP15DC in March 1975 becoming UP 1307 on July 10, 2001 then finally UPY 1307 on October 8, 2003. This unit was initially leased by CNW then purchased by UP on December 31, 1999 and finally retired on January 14, 2013. Purchased by Larry's Truck Electric, this switcher received a fresh coat of Railtex-like red, white, and gray, a new number, and is currently leased to Blacklands Railroad in North Texas. |
