Union Pacific’s two glossy E9As sit inside the roundhouse at Cheyenne, Wyoming, on March 25, 2013. Both were built in 1955, and in the early ’90s, UP sent them to VMV Enterprises in Paducah, Kentucky, to be remanufactured. They emerged in 1993 with a new 16-cylinder 2,000-hp EMD 645 engine (replacing original twin 12-cylinder 1,200-hp 567 engines), with AR10 alternators and GP38-2 design electrical systems.
