When Knott's removed the super heater from the 464 how much did that reduce the locomotive's
power? After the change would she become something like a "K-26" or "K-25"? Or would she just
have to burn more coal (or burn more oil while at Knott's) to pull the same maximum load?

Thank you for your answers.
