With 473 being completed within the next couple of weeks I’m curious how long it will take them to convert 481 considering it is already prepped and just needs the burners. Considering 473 needed a full firebox replacement I’m assuming 481 won’t take nearly as long now that they know just how to do it after converting 2 locomotives already. If my assumptions are right I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if they got 481 running oil in June. (Could be 480 they are converting I can’t remember off the top of my head)
