Moved as KLWX 1050. I'm assuming it will be STE 1050 once it starts working in Stockton. The unit was at the UP Stockton diesel shop on 4/6/19 and was interchanged the next day to the ST&E.
In the article they refer to an old locomotive being replaced as a 60 year old SW1200 which would be STE 678. Wasn't this already the backup unit to STE MP15DC 777? Are they now going to use the 1050 as the primary power and the 777 as the backup?
