In looking at your last shot again, the engine could indeed have one of the diamond stacks, but hard to know which engine. In general 473 was the Durango switcher at this time, used for switching coaches, and freight of course. In the movies we have 473 is always switching, and it was roughly the same time-period (1963). Thats why I think 478 and 476 were the two engines on the passenger trains.
