There is one listed on the famous auction site and I am interested. I don't recall ever having see one before.
Are they good units?

Basically they are good locomotives. They don't come with traction tire drivers and that is a must with any Kato Mikado. Kato no longer produces the traction tire drivers and they are very hard to find. I bought two or three UP Mikado's years ago on the above site and fortunately they all run without any issues. Stay cool and run steam....... I would look for an undecorated version and decal it Union Pacific. The newer runs of the Undecorated Mikado's are excellent. They have the detail parts already added.
