[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by dehusman</i> <br /><br />A piggyback train weighs about 2/3 ton per foot and a stack train weighs just under a ton per foot. <br /> <br />A stack train can get by with 2.5 hp/tt and a pig train 4 hp/tt. Over 5 hp/tt you are just pissing away diesel fuel. <br /> <br />If you are going 7 hrs at 60 mph you are going 420 miles. No freight crew district is that long. Aren't you going to stop to change crews? <br /> <br />Dave H. <br />[/quote] <br />No crew changes. They are going to use one of those new crew dorm cars that were discussed in an earlier thread.
