The two long cabeese in Silver plume are the 0574 and 0586. The short caboose is the RGS 0400. Ex USG locos 130 & 140 are used for rescue service and work train service. The shay you saw dead heading down the line was the 14 and we double headed the hill for one trip to swap locos. A rare occrunce on the loop. Usaully only whan one has to come out of service for boiler wash. The shays can handle the full train up the hill with no problem. Hope this helps.
Josh
