I just got back from Chama tonight. The 487 was ready to be steamed up late Thursday, and the shop crew was doing the honors. 497 is due in for some repairs so 487 needed to move out of the shop. The 497 had some leaks in various systems, especially the air line. 484 and 488 are sitting outside with parts being machined for them in the Chama shop.
