The MOP had a route through the Ozaks that had a sawtooth profile.  With increased traffic with WWII, more HP needed.

And one can consider a locomotive rebuilt if the rebuild usrs the same frame?

The MoPac Berkshire to Northern rebuilds went from 63" drivers to 75" drivers, the frames couldn't possibly be reused.
