Distributed Power Unit (DPU)
An unmanned locomotive, controlled remotely from the lead cab, and placed in the middle or at the rear of the train.
the first 3 are GP38's, then a pair of Sd40's, then a GE Dash 8-40CW, and finally a 44-9w
2704 is a Phase II GP39-2. The raised corrugated radiators signify a Phase II or III Dash 2, as opposed to the wire-mesh radiators that signify a pre-Dash 2 or Phase I Dash 2. This applies to GP38/-2s, GP39/-2s, GP40/-2s, SD38/-2s, SD39s and SD40/-2s. SD45s and SD45-2s have a different situation. By the same reasoning, 8024 and 6854 are Phase II SD40-2s. 6804 has a "snoot" nose, needed to fit Locotrol equipment.Actually it looks more like unit# 656 which is a C44-9w
and 2704 is a GP39
