Turbos don't typically use belt, by definition they use exhaust gasses to spin up to speed. I never had the priviledge of working on the PAs, but I racked up a lot of miles on FAs, and RSs on the old SP&S, and I can assure you that a properly maintained 244 or 251 is a real workhorse. I realize that the SP&S provided exceptional maintenance for their locomotives, and this surely had an effect. I can assure you that a brace of ALCO FAs was quite capable of holding its own against the GN GP 7s we used in Oregon on the Trunk.
