D&RGW 5371

Rio Grande SD40T-2 was built August 1975 and was operational until March 8, 2008. After Union Pacific incorporated the Rio Grande, 5371 was the last T-2 that was still in the full Rio Grande paint. It was retired to Cheyenne, Wyoming until the Union Pacific decided to donate it to the Utah State Railroad Museum. It was delivered and spotted on Union Station’s track one on August 16, 2009. It sat on display in this location until March 28, 2010 when it was relocated under the Eccles Rail Center canopy between the Centennial and SP 7457.
