In 1995, Union Pacific purchased the Chicago and Northwestern and integrated the operation with its own. Re-painting of the recently acquired locomotives took place slowly, especially for the newer units (like the Dash 9s) whose paint jobs were only 1-2 years old at the time of the merger. Therefore, patched and renumbered CNW locomotives continued to operate on the UP system for many years.

UP FEATURES:

As-delivered 1994 paint scheme
Modeler-installed GPS dome included for later-era operations
Leslie RS3L horn
Large snowplow

Built in July and August of 1994, this group of 40 units were the only original Dash 9-44CWs ordered by Union Pacific. The units are still on the active roster along with the former CNW and SP units, and are used in all types of mainline service.
