Help with some Donner Train Symbols

I'm up visiting family in Grass Valley area, and today got out to shoot on Donner in the morning. Not a bad morning with 4 eastbounds and 2 westbounds between about 6 and 9:30. Below is a list of what I managed to shoot, and curious if anyone can help out with symbols for these.

UP 7979 - Eastbound - Huge Manifest (something like 620 axels) - dest of Roper, UT - guessing this is the MRVRO
UP 7937 - Eastbound - Unit Reefer Train - dest of Medford Park, IL - Guessing this is the ZDLSKP, but not sure if that is the current symbol it is useing.
UP 6575 - Eastbound - Unit Grain Train - dest of Nothfield, MN - No idea here
UP 8459 - Eastbound - Intermodal Train (had a few piggybacks on the rear) (second unit was UP 2548, which looked to be a very new GEVO, tier 4?) - dest of Global 2, IL - guessing this is the ZLTG2 or the ZOAG2
UP 7964 - Westbound - Intermodal Train - dest of Oakland, CA - This one someone informed me is the KMNOA

Many thanks in advance!
