Hi All, This just came over the wire from LocoNotes. <blockquote> UP 5800's About on March 15, 2002, Don Zimmerman noticed a change in the inverter panels on the fireman's side of the newer UP C4400CCTE's. The older version used four bolt-on panels, while the new on uses one smaller bolt-on and two larger welded panels. The older panels are flat, while the larger, new ones use the X pattern strengthening. I have been noting the inverter panel type and seem to have found that the change occurred between UP 5813=old and UP 5814=new.

I didn't notice any difference in panels, but on my way home from work this morning I DID see at least two AC4400CCTEs at East Yard, and both were sporting the new US flag decals. They looked a bit grimy, but otherwise the flag looks nice. With two eastbound coal trains waiting power, most likely they headed east this morning.
