Description
Railroad Short Name: UP
Between the time the UP “Big Blow” Turbines were retired during the late 1960s/early 1970s and entering Water Tender service with the steam program in the 1980s, several 24C Tenders were painted MOW silver and repurposed for various duties around the UP system including water and fuel oil storage. Our models are un-numbered without location markings and include black or silver trucks.
