Being turned at Durango in 1955. It still had the straight stack, with the fake box headlight. Said to be currently out of service, with the cylinder saddle loose on the frame. The 497 behind has also operated in recent years, but is likewise currently dead.

And the 481 at Cumbres in March 1958:

Those locomotives have class even with the fake headlight but their true class comes out when they are in the proper paint.
