Hey Russ.... I think 488 got them for the rest of the year, and probably the next year too after it got its new axle. It seems to me 484 got a complete set when it got rebuilt a few yeas later.

The Grande LOVED Keeley pipes. There are close up pics of running gear that show them hard plumbed in permanently. It seems to 492 had plumbing to do that.
