Most likely, for the remainder of the 2026 season, a UP SD70M will be used along with the SD40M-2 on the Canyon Spirit. The GP40-3s are still waiting to be repaired (waiting on insurance) after the accidents last May. Here, UP 4073 currently has the duty along with RMRX 8086 at Cliff, meeting an westbound BNSF oil train.
