UP DD35A 82
Title:  UP DD35A 82
Description:  Union Pacific Railroad DD35A 82 at Los Angeles, California on January 25, 1978, Kodachrome by Joseph R. Quinn, Chuck Zeiler collection. Number 82 was completed in June 1965 (c/n 29996) on EMD Order 7797, retired in October 1979 and sold for scrap. It was built using reconditioned GE 752 traction motors (with 74:18 gear ratio) from trade-in Alco FA and FB units. EMD used the designation 752E20A for these reconditioned traction motors.

When EMD designed the cabless DD35, the intent was to use a GP35 (or any cab equipped locomotive) as the lead. There was concern about "nosing", the tendency for such a large rigid wheelbase locomotive to go straight when it encountered curves in the track, thus realigning the track. The track standards were better on the UP than some other railroads, and the problem did not materialize. So the UP asked EMD to install cabs on the next batch of 15 DD35's, and by the time of the order, EMD had some 645 prime mover equipped SD40's in field testing, so the DD35A's got the same flared radiators as the test units. UP DD35A 82 was equipped for Radio Control (RC) operation in May 1968, serving as the control unit, matching UP #82B which served as the remote. All radio control equipment was removed from both units during July 1973 at Salt Lake City, Utah.

When Dinosaurs Roamed the Earth
Title:  When Dinosaurs Roamed the Earth
Description:  Yes, in terms of horsepower there are certainly bigger locomotives now, but UP's fleet of twin-diesel, 8-axle force of the '60s and '70s had a presence and impact that is couldn't be denied. UP DD35A 84 leads a train southbound out of Salt Lake City in July 1976; behind 84 is DDA-40X 6945, "Fast Forty" SD40-2 8032 and another Centennial, 6933.
