The Cow Who Lost Her Calf
By the early 1980s, Union Pacific's fleet of SW7, SW9, and TR5 locomotives were at or near retirement. Many were rebuilt as SW10s while others were scrapped.
TR5A No. 1876 was assigned to switch duty in Provo, Utah on Jan. 25, 1981. It would be formally retired from the roster by November, and emerge from the Omaha shops as SW10 No. 1228.
