Re: (erielack) What SP units are EL



It is the UP 2768, I shot a picture of it in Washington Mo. Last summer
pulling the Dupo to Kc trailer train.I sent it to George Elwood and it is on
his sight..Haven't seen another since in UP paint.Most of the others tend to
hang in the Roseville Ca. area as it must be there maintenance base.They
will gone soon..
