Wow! With all the hot air rushing by me here I thought I was running really fast for a minute there...lol... Unless you are talking about a TV train or maybe MLs the speeds you see in freight service rarely get beyond 50mph. Even on the road there are plenty of grades, curves and other temporary and permanent speed restrictions. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see performance improved, but putting fans on cars? It is hard enough to get people to spend the money on things that would have much more tangible benefits such as equipping each car with electronic air brakes. Besides, the designs of freight locomotives need to take into account their common uses such as switching. All those steps and walkways don't make for a terribly aerodynamic shape but, have you ever tried to switch with a F unit?? It can be done, but it isn't fun. So, Chessking, how's your twin brother Terry doing these days??? FOFLMAO... LC
