Union Pacific freight train symbol PCNP at Rock Springs, WY

Train symbol PCNP rolls through Rock Springs on Sept. 18, 1987. It has engines 3465 and 3275 pulling 55 loads of freight plus 54 empties, at 7,590 tons. My wife saw two palm tree drawings on this train dated 4-28-80 and 6-9-79. The PCNP began in the 70s as the PMK (Pocatello, Montpelier, Kemmerer), became the PB (Pocatello, Bailey Yard) on June 20, 1983, and then became the PCNP symbol in early 1986.
