QUOTE: Originally posted by 4884bigboy Upon listening to stories from UP, CSX and CP engineers, the SD90MAC-Hs and AC6000CWs are nightmares. They vibrate apart, go through fuel like crazy, and seem to break down too often. No wonder UP is returning. (Hey Class 1's, take a hint, follow good 'ole Big Blue's lead and tell EMD to bring back the SD80MAC! A good solid 5,000 HP)
QUOTE: Originally posted by coborn35 I believe only Conrail and now CSX have SD80MACs.
QUOTE: Originally posted by espeefoamer What does CP think of thier SD90s? Are they SD90 MACH-lls or SD90/43s?
