If there were a contest for the most ton-miles hauled on the narrow guage, my guess is that 474, working the Crested Butte branch would be the winner. Fortunately for the 474, the loaded miles were down grade. Where was all that coal coming out of Crested Butte going, and how did it get there from Gunnison?
