After an accident in May took the Canyon Spirit GP40-3s out of service, the train borrowed a pair of UP SD70Ms for power. Over the summer, PTC was installed in the SD40M-2 (SD45 car body), so the Spirit now only requires a single UP SD70M to assist. UP 4073 currently has the assignment here at the east end of East Portal.
