Re: D&RGW 470s: differences over time and between units 
| March 24, 2018 08:38AM |
I am a few weeks away from completing a book on the D&RGW K-36s for White River Publishing. When it is complete, I will continue work already begun on a book on the K-28s. The book will detail all the changes and modifications made by the D&RGW and D&S over the years.
To get a sample, you might want to read the Rio Grande Modeling & Historical Society's Prospector Magazine article I wrote on K-28 number 473. It was published in December 2014 and is still available from the RGMHS.

I just completed an article on the rebuilding of number 476 and it will be published in Railfan & Railroad Magazine this summer. The article includes an abbreviated history of 476.
