All of the pre-1887 engines on the D&RG which remained in service past 1916 (both types of class 60, the 1881 class 70's, and the class 47s) had had their boilers replaced 1912-1916.[1]

The remaining 45 1/2's and 56s were scrapped in 1916-1917 because they hadn't, and it wasn't thought worth the $$$ to change 'em out.

[1] Well, that's the time frame for the 60's & 70's(mostly 1912-13), I've always figgered the 47's were done right about then too.
