Union Pacific 4141 is an EMD SD70ACe locomotive owned by Union Pacific. Its paint scheme is based on that of Air Force One and "George Bush 41" is painted on the sides in honor of George H. W. Bush, the 41st President of the United States.[1]
The road number 4141 was previously occupied by an SD70M, which has since been renumbered.
The unit was removed from active service due to reduced traffic levels stemming from financial crisis of 2007–2010, and is currently stored at UP's North Little Rock shop. The unit is to have its unique paint scheme and number removed during its next overhaul. However,according to UP chief of engines Roger Mills this unit is now back in service as of 09/18/2011 on its first train to Chicago, Illinois and will be seen around the United States on the Union Pacific System.[2]
