========================

Things are screwed up here big time with the cold weather. Ill do my best to get a look at it.

The unit was primed first with the grey stuff. UP didnt prime it, CEECo did, hence its that color. The labels were then applied as some have a clear mask already in place over them. It will get painted, eventually..

I assumed it was a contractor. Was it at CEECO for wreck repairs or GE warrantee work? Not even sure if CEECO does GE work, most of what I have seen on GE's go to N. Platte (or prior N. Council Bluffs).

I ended up working the MNPWV-15 last night.

The UP 6344 is yellow.

It was painted last at North Little Rock 12/18/06.

Im very tired.

Will try to put some pictures i took lastnight when i can.

CEECo is a private contrator like place ( like NRE but smaller ). They do mostly wreck repair and painting, most recently they rebuilt the fleet of SP Flangers. I would guess it was rushed out but then went to NLR, being there the only UP shop that paints.

X-SP 298 (more pictures from that night in the Western Railfan Forum)

Over in Rock Springs on the Devil Train as the trailing unit.

At Green River on one of the engine ready tracks a few days later.
