Another candidate for improvement was the K-27's - going from a slopeback tendered, straight running board, long smokeboxed......er thing, to an almost equally cobbled up mess with slde valves, to a REAL pretty locomotive at the end.
I do think some of the modernized slide valve engines (like 460) looked nice though.
