fist off thanks coker for all these articles they are a good shot in the arm.
second i heard that one K-27 got run throu the black canyon from gunnison to montrose with a caboose or two as a experiment as to see if you could run one throu the canyon and as a power move to montrose (i belive it may have been 456 as that engin seemed to spend all of its time there) it was never repeated so i gess that the trip was preety hairy.
