Photo ID: 113019 Date Shot Photo By Sunday, September 7, 2025 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed Stapleton Denver, CO 390 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Limon (UP) Union Pacific I shot the Limon Local a week earlier, and the leader the crew was given was in much better shape than this AC4400CW! This particular unit is probably wearing the same paint as when it was delivered to Union Pacific in November 1995. An interesting note about this unit. It was actually ordered by Chicago North Western. But it was ready for delivery after the UP acquired the CNW, so it was delivered in UP colors.
