I am unable to find any coverage of this locomotive in secondary sources. The source used for basically the entire article is a self-published website.

 * Comment. If this is not independently notable (I haven't looked for sources) it should be redirected to List of preserved Southern Pacific Railroad rolling stock. If verifiable, the information in the article could be used to expand the entry there to a full sentence as that seems DUE based on other entries. I don't see any benefit in deletion over this course of action. Thryduulf (talk) 21:31, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Redirect per Thryduulf. News search found nothing and book search found self-published sources (and a few books with "Southern Pacific" on page 1298). – dudhhr talkcontribssheher 22:09, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Redirect as per Thryduulf would indeed be the best choice. TH1980 (talk) 02:55, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
