DRGW 5401 (patched as UP 9871) was the last unpatched Rio Grande Tunnel Motor to lead a train on the Moffat! In 2004, it led a work train from Phippsburg, CO to North Yard. It was also one of the last four Tunnel Motors to depart Helper, UT. Fitting that its brother (DRGW 5371, also one of the last four) was preserved and now live in Ogden, UT.
