Great spreadsheet!

I'd love to see it cover the '20s as well. There was a period in the mid to late 20's when the big K's showed up on the Rio Grande that shifted a lot of power to the RGS. Bob Richardson wrote that in 1925, 9 of 10 C-19s were on lease to the RGS, and 40 and 41 were RGS engines, so 11 of 12 were there at once. In the late 20's, I'm guessing 450, 451, 457, and 460 might have been seen there as well.
