Chuck Zeiler General The following is from the book, Southern Pacific Diesel Locomotive Compendium, Volume Two, by Joseph A. Strapac: The #7294 was wrecked June 20, 1991 at Proctor, Arkansas, burned and destroyed. The wreckage was returned to lessor Morrison-Knudsen, arriving at Boise on December 29, 1991. It was scrapped April 28, 1992. In February 1992, M-K provided a replacement (second) #7294, using the frame from CSXT 6811-SBD 6811-L&N 3015. 8/9/2012 11:59:20 AM
