This may show some of the reasoning behind the choices they made.
The Army shipped out the K28's in 1944. They were no longer in Alaska when the WP&Y was making their post-war motive power decisions.
The WP&YR bought more of the 190's at a later date than this report. The US Gov. hadn't found buyers for them.
