Santa Fe 1950s Locos and Rolling stock

[cmbeal317]

Hi,
I was wondering what locomotives and rolling stock would have been in use durring the 1950s. I am currently planning a small Ho layout with 22" radius curves and I was planning on including steam engines as they are my favorite. So far I was looking into purchasing an Athrean 2-6-0 train set with passenger cars and I was looking for small steam engines to include. I am also wondering what kind of rolling stock was in service on the Santa Fe durring the 50's.
Thanks in advance

During the 50's I think ATSF was mostly down to the larger steam engines, ala 2-10-2, 2-10-4, 4-8-4, ect... They were already running diesel at that time also. Warbonnets on passenger trains, and black switchers with zebra stripes...
