QUOTE: Originally posted by cpbloom The first thing I thought when I saw the photo is they are probably isolated but would they put them in the middle of the locos and not at the end??? I seem to remember a Pentrex video of Conrail where they had a switcher in a train and it WAS online with the SDs! [:O]

QUOTE: Originally posted by daveklepper If you are going to move power from one point to another for maintenance or any other reason, and use of the power on the train, intermodal or anything else, even Amtrak, won't restrict the maximum speed, why not have the power used instead of being just dead weight? If they did anything else it would be wasting money.
