Makes no difference...Russo/Willie/Whoever.

D&RGW 1947 T.T.#124.
K-28 was rated at 800tons on the Tacoma-Rockwood section, and as a comparison, Antonito-Cumbres is 630tons in both T.T.'s.

Speed limit for the Rockwood-Animas R. Bridge section 8 MPH.
D&RGW Track Profile pg21/1947 shows a -1.42% grade.

So. not overloaded, not down on its knees! Just the usual, all "in a Day's work" for an EngineDriver.

EDIT:corrected TT#
