The road number of this unit was confirmed by a former employee, Obie Meeks, who also appeared in the film on "Eastbound 12" as the Engineer. He was the Master Mechanic on the Alaska when the film was shot. Other Units in the consist include GP40-2 3010, F9A 1500 (Retired, now on display in Anchorage, AK) and GP7's 1801, and 1812.
