I hope that it goes on display inside to get away from the Texas weather. Pat Date: 05/19/19 05:54 Re: UP1111 & UP4141 Author: v1perfan What is the final destination for 1111 before they remove the wraps? And when are they removing them?

Date: 05/19/19 18:48 Re: UP1111 & UP4141 Author: Habu A bit ironic that they chose a non-Isolated Cab SD70ACe to dedicate to their employees. I’m sure crews will be thrilled to have another non-Isolated Cab “Heritage” unit that will often be placed in the lead.

Now I'm too old and THANKFUL I never got in! As for this 1111 farce, I'm sorry, but it looks like shit and couldn't have come at a worse time with all the layoffs!
