@MrGerbilBrain lol

[surfsidewastewater]

If you spend all that money on new locos do you get a full tank of fuel

[Ohiorailfan]

@surfsidewastewater i'm not too sure about that

[iceman977th]

Nice, off topic but how the hell did you get down to catch the KRT switchers in action?  Only thing I ever see moving are the GP40's...bastard lol

[Ohiorailfan]

@iceman977th lol, luck

[iceman977th]

@Ohiorailfan Really lucky then. I did catch them doing push/pull with the 40's once, but left

[Ohiorailfan]

@iceman977th ohhh

[epistte]

What percentage of new locomotives still use DC wheel motors?

[Ohiorailfan]

probably 65%

[epistte]

Is that because of the additional cost of AC locomotives or because the traction benefits aren't necessary?

[Ohiorailfan]

it might be the cost, i really don't know

[guitardavepdx]

bright shiny new punkins

[Ohiorailfan]
