Presidential
We swung through Little Rock on our way to Springdale, as I had long wanted to see Union Pacific's Jenks Shop complex, where locomotives receive heavy overhauls. We had no idea that this would be sitting here: Union Pacific #4141! This EMD SD70ACe was specially painted to commemorate the opening of George H. W. Bush's Presidential Library and Museum about 12 years ago and has mostly been stored since then. When the former President passed away a couple of months ago, 4141 was immediately reactivated and pulled his funeral train in Texas to his final resting place. Now being stripped off its engine and other electronics, 4141 will eventually be donated to GHWB's Museum where it will be part of an interactive display.
