JOHN COKER IN REGUARDS TO YOUR COMMENTS ABOUT K-28 #473 IN STORAGE IN SALIDA IN THE 1930'S WEREN'T THERE QUITE A NUMBER OF ENGINES IN STORAGE IN SALIDA DUE TO THE DEPRESSION. ONLY REAL WAY TO KNOW IF #473 RAN ON THE THIRD DIVISION IS THRU TRAIN ORDERS OR THRU PHOTOS. DORMAN'S BOOK ALAMOSA/SALIDA SHOWS #472 AS THE ROAD ENGINE FOR THE SHAVANO ON SEPTEMBER 28, 1940. AT THIS TIME PASSANGER SERVICE HAD NOT BEEN DISCONTINUED ON THE VALLEY LINE WOULD IT NOT SEEM LIKELY THAT ANY OF THE OTHER K-28'S (471,473,475,476,477 & 478) THAT WERE IN SALIDA WERE THERE ONLY AND NOT RUN THRU TO GUNNINSON.
