[quote user="timz"]  [quote user="Bucyrus"]In order to compare the fundamental abilities of steam and diesel locomotives, we need to compare locomotives of equal stature for a fair comparison....In fact, in our comparison of fundamental abilities, we expect to find a difference.  Yet if a difference is found, it implies that the two locomotives are not of equal stature, and therefore the comparison is unfair.[/quote]Sounds like you're at a dead end. Far as I'm concerned you're worrying too much about making your comparisons "fair". Go ahead and make the comparison, doing your best to make it fair; if somebody says it's unfair, leave it up to the reader to decide.[/quote]Well are we only comparing individual locomotives to see which one does what?  Or are we comparing locomotives to discover some fundamental difference between steam and diesel locomotives?
