UP Weyerhaueser Switcher  Contributor's Pick!       
Former DRGW 3129, UP 1445 has just gotten done switching Weyerhauser, Kingsford and possibly Lehigh's Cement and heads to the Main off of the old SP Marcola/Wendling Branch at Mohawk Junction (28th Street). DRGW 3129 was one of the two last GP40's built for Rio Grande. 3129 and 3130 were wreck replacements and were built in 1983, 9 years after the last order of GP40-2s, and are more externally similar to the GP50. UP 9987 is one of the few built and last remaining WP GP40-2s on UP's roster. UP 1445 has since recieved a full Union Pacific repaint.
