Thanks Earl. Do you have a timeline for these engines, where they ran last, or when they were the switcher. I am trying to get a feel for what their last duties were as switcher or on the road. I suspect the 463 and 464 were taken off the Silverton line once the K-28's were free from San Juan duty. I also realize the diesels were there in the 50's, but not sure exactly when. In one of my scenes we see 480, and you mentioned it was the switcher circa 1963-64. So I am guessing 473 was before and after that. Old stack before 1964, and new one after that?
Thanks,
Greg
