| In mid-November 1956, 4005 trundles through the yard in Laramie. The coaling tower looms over the cab of the engine. This tower, along with most of the other engine faclities in Laramie, is long gone today. 4005, however, would survive the end of steam on the UP. The unit was stored as of November 30, 1958, and was marked as unserviceable in 1960. Ten years would pass before the engine would donated to the Forney Museum in Denver, Colorado in 1970.
