Being a diesel brat, I was particularly sad to see that UP is getting rid of UP 6936, a DDA40X and largest diesel locomotive ever produced. It has been inoperable since 2017, and it appears UP no longer wishes to deal with its mechanical issues. Fortunately, the Railroading Heritage of Midwest America museum has said they intend to repair it and bring it back to operational condition.
