Ok, a new slug question [}:)] <br /> <br />I was at a Rock Island web site and noticed they had two catagories of slugs. One was Road Slug, and the other was Yard Slug. I know that slugs would borrow power from another locomotive and the slug was useful in helping to start the train moving, at around 20 mph or so the slug would cut out as the power then was needed by the host loco. Is there a difference between yard slugs and road slugs. Are road slugs able to operate at a higher mph than yard slugs? <br />
