On the subject of the Cumbres and Toltec 50th Anniversary celebrations, here are a couple more ideas that might work.
First, how about recreating the first C&TS train of 1970, by running 484 as 483, and maybe a few of the original converted boxcars? If 484 had that Lukenheimer that would be great.
Second, maybe a locomotive cavalcade during the gathering of engines built before 1900, with the visitors, 168, 315, 363, 484, 487, 488, 489 and maybe one of the geese and the diesel as a contrast... or possibly a K-36 shoving OY as well?
These are all just my ideas, so I don't know if any are possible.
