A few years ago UAL 8146 was used for a LAX-IAD 767-300, specifically one I went on....(can't remember the ticket number or continuation destination tho, suspect it was 924 to LHR as that'll be what I caught)...

Just a note to that, UA's 747-400OB are using 81xx, all the numbers are running from 8171 (N171UA) to 8128 (N128UA), therefore 8146 does not exist in UA's fleet at all.

Remember that the domestic portion (ORD-IAD) of UA936 is on 772, not 744. I didn't catch the nose number on the plane.
