What is the appropriate load that a SD70M would haul? Coal? Phosporous? Other?

I have seen SD70s on mixed freights to coal drags.Being use as pushers,on ballast trains and hot pig/stack trains.Unlike modelers the real railroads will use their motive power as they see fit and make no apologies for doing so.
