I scaned a Chama scene from 1967 that was used for the April 1993 Sundance calendar page. It shows 4 engines being serviced in the yard, and the engine closest to me was the 493, our local engine here in Silverton. The 493 was quite the work horse in 1967 with many of the 480s out of service in Alamosa. I can imagine what Chama must have been like during the pipe rush with this happening on a daily basis, week after week.
