CRTS Update #12-83

FORMER CONRAIL SD40's GET NEW LEASE ON LIFE:
	Locomotive Leasing partners recently transfered 10 SD40's to 
parent EMD to use as "owed power" to various customers, namely 
Union Pacific. The 10 SD40's were shipped to VMV Enterprises in 
Paducah, KY and are being rebuilt to Union Pacific's specifications 
as SD40-2's and are to be numbered as Union Pacific 4766 through 
4775. 

Hard to believe that in 1999 that a former Central Railroad of New 
Jersey (CNJ) and six former Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) SD40's would 
be alive and well on Union Pacific! The heritage of the units is as 
follows: 

UP 4766 former Southern Pacific 7399
UP 4767 former Southern Pacific 7318
UP 4768 former EMDX 6414, Conrail 6315, Penn Central/Pennsylvania
Railroad 6062
UP 4769 former EMDX 6415, Conrail 6323, Penn Central/Pennsylvania
Railroad 6070
UP 4770 former EMDX 6417, Conrail 6291, Central Railroad of New 
Jersey 3067
UP 4771 former EMDX 6418, Conrail 6316, Penn Central/Pennsylvania
Railroad 6063         
UP 4772 former EMDX 6424, Conrail 6329, Penn Central/Pennsylvania 
Railroad 6076 
UP 4773 former EMDX 6428, Conrail 6327, Penn Central/Pennsylvania 
Railroad 6074 
UP 4774 former EMDX 6430, Conrail 6357, Penn Central/Pennsylvania 
Railroad 6104 
UP 4775 former EMDX 6505, Louisville & Nashville 8345
