A friend of mine runs PRR mainline during the late Steam-Diesel Transition years. In a good and busy operating session of 8 people, we have 2 yards working full time, and 6 mainline trains operating. Each mainline train is 80 to 100 cars in length with 3 to 4 engines pulling. Occasionally, we have to run pusher services to get up some of the grades. You can bet that the wheels and couples are monitored closely for any issues.
