No. 7400 - Union Pacific Pink Ribbon Locomotive
The Union Pacific No. 7400 Pink Ribbon Locomotive celebrates the company’s support of Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, and the many lives – employees, family, friends and community members – affected by breast cancer. As recipient of Komen’s Outstanding Volunteer Group Award, Union Pacific has been dedicated to the cause of eradicating breast cancer for more than a decade.
Since 2000, Union Pacific's LEAD (Lead, Educate, Advocate, Develop) employee group has worked to promote the Susan G. Komen Nebraska More Than Pink Walk® by guiding employee volunteers to organize, plan and implement a registration drive, create promotional campaigns for the race and motivate Union Pacific's Omaha-area employees. This dedication has inspired affiliate LEAD chapters through UP’s 23-state operating system to support local Komen chapters and demonstrates how Union Pacific employees throughout the nation have embraced Komen's promise on a personal level.
