Evan,

Based on the dispatchers train sheets I have been able to review, the K-27’s started being used on the RGS in 1926. The 461, 463 and 464 were operating on February 13, 1926. On January 20, 1928 they ran a 4 engine freight out of Ridgway with 464, 452, 454 and 348. On March 30, 1928 463 and 315 teamed up like they have in recent years on the C&TS.

A few years ago I posted a summary of dispatchers train sheet data from 1925-30 and 1940-41.

Scott
