  Elliott 6 2 rebuilt to EMD
  AiResearch 3  
  EMD 27  
  (none) 14  
b. UP 301, 305, and 308B were rebuilt by EMD as pre-production GP20s, using EMD's new turbocharger. The units also received the 2350 gallon fuel tank, horizontal air reservoirs and inspection slots in the frame side usually associated with the GP20.
c. Note that there was a break in production between UP 320 (July 1957) and UP 321 (September 1957); UP 321 was the first GP9 that had the twin, small louver vents on the battery boxes, replacing the single, large louver that had been used since the beginning of GP7 production in late 1949. (More information the first use of 48-inch radiator fans)
d. UP 324 was equipped with a separate oil cooler, located in the short hood, requiring small louvers in the short hood car body.
e. Many of the 300-class cab units were modified with a separate access door above the walkway and behind the fireman's side of the cab. This added door allowed access for easier changing of the units' field shunt resistors. By photo research, the modified units include UP 312, 316, and 317.
f. UP 329 was the last 2000 horsepower GP9M (nicknamed Omaha GP20) on UP, retired in May 1985.
g. UP 340 was equipped with a large pilot snowplow.
h. Many units in the 300-class GP9s were equipped to burn low grade residual fuel. This modification included large fuel lines mounted to the left side of the new 2400 gallon fuel tank. By photo research, using the addition of open-grid walkways as the indicator, the modified units include UP 307, 311, 316, 328, 336, 343, 348, and 349. (Read more about Bunker C fuel oil)
i. UP 300-349 had an original operating weight of 246,800 pounds before the addition of the 2400 gallon fuel tanks. UP 312, 333, 338, 341, 345, and 346 retained this weight throughout their operating careers. The units equipped with 2400 gallon fuel tanks had operating weights of 258,700 pounds.
j. Built on EMD order number 5552, frame numbers 5552-1 to 50.
