Err... which time?
compound to simple:
6/06 - 2/07 458
12/08 - 10/09 450, 452, 455, 461, 463
10/09 - 1/12 451, 453, 454, 459, 460, 462, 464
??? 457
sometime between 1/12 & 4/16 456
slide valves to piston valves: (completion dates)
3/24 454
1/25 461
3/25 458
9/25 464
12/25 452, 455
9/25 456
6/27 463
8/27 459
???? 453
8/29 462
450, 451, 457 & 460 not rebuilt
I'm not sure if SH was applied same date as piston valves - certainly wasn't for #462!
Info from "Mudhens"
Great book, now if somebody would give the same treatment to each of the other classes of D&RG engines...
