Are RS-5s good for climbing trestles and descending hills?

I need a loco that can.

An RSD 5 is the same as is the same as an RSD4 except the 5 had the same generator as the PA's and not the smaller one on the 4.
Have to get out the spotters guide to find out about a RS 5.

If you want something that will pull anything you connect to it get the new atlas rs1 with cruise control. They are fantastice pullers.
