George Goble once delivered a classic line, "Ever feel as if the world was a tuxedo and you were a pair of brown shoes?" That's the impression I get with this power duo leaving Fremont, NE enroute North Platte. The "We Will Deliver" logo of the mid-90s was typical corporate forked-tongue speak during the self-inflicted meltdown of the entire system, as about all UP was delivering at the time was dogcatch crews. UP 5080 is former C&NW SD50 No. 7020, and the SP T-2 is just another example of the motive power fleet that nearly consumed UP.
