What I would like to see is a steam locomotive pull a roadrailer train. That would set a record.

@radeakins That was just this video they do get up and take their freight pretty fast! Just check the other videos and you will see they can haul ass too

Iowa Interstate is still using their QJ's!? I thought they stored them away to be sold or something. Good to see them being used for revenue freight.

I believe they are used mainly for "dinner trains" and the like. This was to set a record for steam powered revenue service for this century, if I'm not mistaken.
