Indeed! Actually the middle unit (GP40X 9005) is the rarest of the three, only 23 were built (6 for UP) vs. 47 Centennials.

Concerning the GP40X series, with the exception of the #9000 (original numbering) delivered to the UP in Jul 1978, #9001 - 9005 arrived in Feb/Mar 1978. Interestingly, #9003 - 9005 originally had the same gear ratio (59:18) as the Centennials and "Fast-Forties."
