Ed I have to agree with you on them coal trains even if they are slow and more often underpowered at .4-.6 horsepower per ton both the BNSF and UP likes to keep them moving as they pay more revenue than the intermodle on the BNSF here in Illinois the average coal train is 125 cars with some of them having 140 with only (2) SD70MAC`S pulling or in the case of dp pushing and pulling I also bet the empty hopper`s have the same priorty I know they do on BNSF as soon as we coppy the track warrent we give the dispatcher our fuel readings and he ok to run track speed. Up here on the territories that i run on we have some SIT tracks used to store empty tank cars for cargill for corn syrup and alchol. Rodney conductor BNSF
