Around 40,000 horsepower, I reckon but with a load like that not excessive. Nice Santa Fe (Warbonnet?) colour schemes on two locos.

@gwaithwyr Well engines average around 4,600HP each so a little of 46,000 HP on the train. That train just came down the Tehachapi mountains which is why so much HP was needed. Yes there was 1 true war bonnet & 1 patched war bonnet on that train
