A look at a pair of former Chicago North Western C44-9Ws that have likely been sitting in storage in Grand Junction for months (or even years). Not entirely sure where they are headed, but it is possible they are going to be rebuilt into C44ACMs by UP. This would change them from DC traction motors to AC traction motors. UP has done this to roughly 50 other C44-9Ws as of this picture.
