This is the only reference I'm seeing to 490 going towards Gunnison after she did a turn to Moffat on 1/15, with 491 as helper from Villa Grove.

And here they are going East? Is there an Extra 490 West missing somewhere? I didn't find one on 1/15 or 1/16?
I had, sort of, a system for posting trains that left terminals a short time prior to midnight. Obviously it failed in this case.
Extra 490 west with helper engine 491 had departed Salida Jan 15, 10:50 PM. I have posted edit adding this run to the Jan 16 post.
