<p>Yes all the 6 axel engines are road and hump power but I personally move and turn using an SW1500 an average of 10-25 road units a night on a turntable that has no retirement in sight. It is actually in the process of being rebuilt right now, and as far as pollution regs. they are different for road power than they are yard units. Oh yeah i forgot to mention, I work 4 a class 1 RR. I have personally dealt with the 4 that NS currently has in service and they suck. They are in the shop and average of once a week. YOu are right about turning a goat in a consist,but there will always be times that they r just flat out too big.</p>
