Oh yeah,that's right.Yep UP uses them along with CSX and BHP Iron in Australia.They use them like they did their Bigboys during the Steam era,fast freight and to get over the mountains I believe.rogerw said:well cred you are the one respondsable for me liking the 6000's. I saw yours and said niceeeee. are they a current up engine?
Alot of them were converted to AC4400's because they had problems with the first AC6000's and told they could upgrade to the 6000hp engine if they wanted to later on,most didn't as you could probably tell by the tons of AC4400 models and so few AC6000 ones.
If you want to know a place that has them at a decent price I'll give you the link if you can't find one for cheap.
