Having got a GP40X what I needed now was a standard GP 40 -2 for a comparison. Luck was on my side when I visited an exhibition in Armitage in Staffordshire and bought a UP version along with a couple of tractor units at a very attractive price.

UP 1349 spotting a Rock Island covered hopper at the Farmer’s Coop elevator at Colonel’s Crossing. The elevator is a lightly modified Con-Cor plastic kit.
