The Texarkana, TX side collision of two UP freight trains on 9 8 2015.

The NTSB has released the report of the side collision of two UP freights in 2015. I have determined (by looking at the OG's) that the striking train was on the SSW and the struck train was on the MP. Was UP 2542, the locomotive on its side, scrapped as it looked the worse for wear?
