[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by bnsfengineer</i> <br /><br />Yes, joegreen is correct that BNSF and NS are different railroads, but how many cars does NS run on their coal trains? BNSF is running trains with 135 cars, at 19 thousand tons with 1 and 1 dp. Now that is doing some pulling which the GE cannot do very well with out slipping. The Mac does a very good job for these types of trains and BNSF has started running 150 car trains to the Thomas Hill power plant in Missouri. These have been test trains that bnsf has ran a couple of times and only with Mac's for power. <br />[/quote]SWEET! I love SD70MAC's.
