Union Pacific ES44AC #5695 in Lebanon, Oregon, on September 1, 2006

On the Albany & Eastern in Lebanon, Oregon, on September 1, 2006, I found another Union Pacific mainline locomotive.

Union Pacific #5695 was the first of five Pre-Production ES44AC Tier II V12 AC test units.

It was built by General Electric in January 2003.

It was delivered to Union Pacific on April 1, 2003, along with sisters #5696 and #5697; they were the first GEVO locomotives delivered to a railroad, though they remained owned by General Electric.

Union Pacific gives its ES44AC locomotives the designation C45ACCTE.
