What has happened to SP SD40 7357, has it been retired, repainted, pacthed or is it still running around in SPSF paint?

Either been sold or a locomotive remanufacturer or to the scrap yard.

Well it shows as having arrived Mojave, Ca 9/5/01 @ 14:17. Doubtful that it was repainted (as it would likely have at least a new number patched onto it). There was a thread last week in which omeone said they thought that the Trona Railway in Searles had picked it up.

SP 3773 out.

Nope, She is still running around as far as I know. Last heard she was in Mojave Ca on 09.05.01. Trace the unit at UPRR.com. They will show up as a load. Hope this helps.

Too bad, I guess things can not last forever. Thanks for the information.

No scrap yard in Mojave, and it's been there since the 5th.

I highly doubt SP 7357 is still an active unit. It was retired 5/22/2001 and listed in an 8/10/2001 auction held in Fort Worth, TX.
