Durango & Silverton 476: Short Chase to Hermosa

On May 19th after Chasing the 493 near Rockwood, we went back to Durango to do a short chase with K-28 #476 as it was on a test run for the upcoming summer and fall season on the Durango & Silverton. The engine made a few stops for the crew to inspect the engine. Enjoy!

476 with a Diamond Smokestack and D&S lettering on the tender looks absolutely great!

Great catch Ethan

I think it’s quite interesting to see 476 wearing a diamond stack while in D&S colors. It’s like a collision of time periods

Tell me about it

[@TexasRailfan21-RailfanRyan]

476 is my favorite locomotive on the Durango and Silverton narrow gauge railroad roster when I visited the Durango and Silverton back in August 2004 with my dad. She wasn’t in operation back then 478 was still operating the entire time I was there I saw 482 leading a special charter train with caboose, 0500 and 480 which I rode behind the following day on the second train, and then I saw 486 with the third train to Silverton back then they still ran three Trains a day to Silverton I hope to return one day to meet 476 for the first time in my life

I love how 476 still is wearing the diamond smokestack I think it’s suits her keeping up with the heritage of how they operated in the days of the Denver and Rio Grande, western ownership of the line

476 with Diamond stack is a vibe

Why did 476 get a new funnel
