I think 473's 1950 stack and 476's 1956 stack were different. 476 had the odd ball look in that the upper part of the diamond was longer than the lower part. 478's and 473's 1960's stack were symetrical both stop and bottom halfs were the same.

476's and 478's first appeared in Night Passage when filmed in the fall of 1956. I don't think they ever left after the filming.
