492

I was wondering if anyone has scene the movie "Bite the Bullet". It is flimed on the C&TS in the early years. Anyway at the end of the movie one can see several steam engine. I saw 488 and 489 in bad shape but, also one can see 492 in the background and it looks to be in great shape. Well getting to the point why wasn't 492 brought back to service with 483 and 484. I know there is nothing that can be done now but, it would be interesting to find out why 492 was not put back into service at the time. Finally one last thing are the K-37 bad engines or does no body like them. Hopefully 492 will be brought back to service one day. All of this is my 2 cents, as you all say[
