[quote user="Flashwave"] [quote user="dehusman"]Many roads frown on the loco on both end of the train local operation (it basically says you have twice as many locomotives on the job as you need to move the train).[/quote]  They may not like it, but Trains ran an article last year about freight on the NorthEast Corridor, where they mentioned the class one's did it from Conrail on up, cause it did speed up switching in a world where Passenger service is the Host road[/quote] I know for a fact Conrail handled locals that way in Latrobe, PA. They ran two GP15-1s  #1649 and #1650 one on each end.
