Wabash,Had another incident with a Dash-9 the other day.We had a 7100 ft long 7000 ton Denver-Linclon.The lead dash-9 went belly up on us and no matter what we did couldn't get it running again.Even talked to field support and they said their was nothing they could do to help.They also said they've been having lots of problems with the dash-9s lately.Anything from computor problems to fuel and electrical faults.To many and to numerious to list here.The only thing that keep us from going dead in the water was a good old reliable EMD SD40-2.It brought us to town,not fast but it kept on working.Dash-9 was put in service in June of 1999.The SD40-2 was put in service may of 1980!
