Ex-WP UP 9988 GP40-2
Title:  Ex-WP UP 9988 GP40-2
Description:  These old units have been stopping off in Poplar Bluff lately. Notice where the Union Pacific Lettering and the red stripe above that is peeling off and showing LOTS of WP Green Paint, as well as where the builder's and trust plates were. The unit is incorrectly labeled "GP40" on the cab.

Description:  The former Cotton Belt engine sits at the end of the power line for the local. This is the "Cotton Bell" ex-SSW unit. This was taken from the Ditch Road Bridge. They've pulled the units right to the end of the track.
