Right Greg, a couple Mill could cover any issues that would pop up along a run of this sorts.


In reality, though, these three engines or these three classes in their lifetimes have had special duties working with the OY I'm sure.

An option could be that 168 pull a two car passenger special behind and separate from 315 and 463 as they make their way up the grade. As far as I can see in previous threads they are hoping to run this special in a fresh snow not a packed down many months layered snow scene as they have done in previous years.

In 1923 the K-28's came into play on the DRGW, then in 1925 the K-36's where taking the grunt work of the daily task at hand. of course by the 1930's the K-37's all had made their début, and the T's and C's were seeing less and less usage along the mainline narrow gauge.
