There was supposed to be another train run with 497 and 473 in Dec., but it was cancelled because of bad weather.

Dec. 27, 1967 was the last day 497 ran under D&RGW ownership. 497 did not run in 1968.

With the exception of a round of freight trains run Nov 9-10 using 476 and 493, 497 ran on every 1967 freight operation after July 10.
