Last use of 578 and 563

No.  These trains operated with diesels for several months; I have photos 
made at Norton of GP9 790 arriving on #5.

I know these pacifics were last used on the train to Norton #5, but I
would like to know when the last runs were, and the last use of the
engines in service.  Was train #5 discontinued at this time(1957-58)
causing these engines to be surplus?  Thanks, Greg Scholl
