UP DDA40X #6936 is the only one of the UP-exclusive Centenials (all 47 of the class were built for the UP's 100th aniversary, hence the "centential" moniker") still running, and UP uses it for private excusions, sometimes with either 3985 or 844 as well. 12 other DDA40X's have been preserved in various condition, like the one pictured above. The other 34 DDA40X's were all 'withdrawn', or probably scraped. The DDA40X actually is quite interesting, although I'll let Deano tell you the details, for he could probably take one apart and put it back together without blueprints (now kiddies, DON'T try that at home!sign1)
