After the huge effort to rebuild 493 wraps up soon then which locomotive would likely be next for rebuild? One of the K-36's I'd guess. However, if 493 proves to work well on the Silverton runs and it is able to pull two more cars effectively as they are hoping, then could we see 498 returned to service as well?
