In response to the question about Intermodals, I'd advise changing all your cars to metal wheelsets (reduces rolling resistance). I've not tried the SD75, but my set of an Athearn 3-unit drawbar double stack, a 5-unit artic double stack, two Walthers 5-unit spine cars and an Athearn Impack needs a pair of Athearn Dash 9s or AC4400s to haul it. I'm planning to add more ballast to these locos at some point in an effort to improve their running and haulage abilities.
