This SW1500 was coming up on its 41st birthday in this picture. It started out as SP 2548 and stayed scarlet and gray until shortly after the UP/SP merge. It moved to UP 1132 on February 18, 1997 and stayed that way until it was retired on February 24, 2009. Here, it is being transported to North Platte, NE. From there, it will move to Fort Worth, TX where it will be turned over to Econo-Rail.
