Can anyone tell me the status of D&RGW SD40T-2 locomotive 5378? along with, I'm sure, many others I have this HO Athearn on my layout. Thank you.

Hi ptcjack. Welcome to the forum.

There is an excellent website that keeps track of all D&RGW and Union Pacific locomotives, you may enjoy having a look at it.

It reports the following on D&RGW 5378-
D&RGW 5378 was renumbered to SP 5378 (with D&RGW reporting mark on cab side); renumbered to UP 8577 on 16 April 2002. It was retired by UP on 27 Feb 2007.

There are some photographs here showing how it looked on UP.
