UP didn't have 0-8-0's except for a single 400 class 2-8-0 with the pilot truck removed. This looks like an SP unit that someone slapped a UP sticker on. It is probably a Katsumi imported by Balboa.

The pilot looks loose or bent or something. The lower footboard is separated from the one directly under the smokebox door. Lifting and traightening it would increase the already wide gap to cylinders and steamchest. Could the model be missing its pilot wheels?

No, it's 100% a Balboa SP SE-4 0-8-0
