<p>So much thank you, BigJim!</p><p>hope nobody got bothered with this thread, fine it's still alive . Any other figures (this should no become a Black vs. White thread, please) for other specific combinations are welcome!</p><p>Maybe, the aim to compare engines just by their drawbar or tonnage pull at certain speeds is not as exact as I thought first. There seems to be many more factors than just engine related ones: achieved speeds, range of fuel or moving tonnage just beyond stall weight. </p><p>What do you think about the achieved average 3500hp and 70000lbs TE effort on the BB test runs (Kratville, P. 23)?</p><p>If we compare some diesel classes on specific runs, can we draw trends for steamengines? I tried to do this here: <a href="/TRC/CS/forums/1268000/ShowPost.aspx">http://www.trains.com/TRC/CS/forums/1268000/ShowPost.aspx</a></p><p>Excitingly waiting for your charts...</p><p>Lars</p>
