Two SD9043MAC's are in notch 8 trying to keep this heavy grain train up to speed. Trains have to punch it coming thru town because there is a 1% hill west of town. Underpowered trains stall on this hill. This train got down to 10 mph climbing the hill.

  • That must be one heavy bitch to make those SD90s scream like that, and I'm betting there was no mid or end power.

  • Nope, all of the power was up front.

  • Notch 8 is the speed GO Transit run their MP40s. Same engine = same sound.

  • that is the coolest horn ever! I love how hard they are pulling awesome video!!

  • You want notch 8 ? Do you prefer 567's , ALCO, GE or Dash 8's and SD70's maybe even an SD40. I got the lot and they are all in Australia and quite a few are from the cab.

  • Awesome sound!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • sounds sweet!

  • Sounded more like dynamic brakes in position 8. If it were notch 8 you'd see a lot more heat coming from the units.

  • EMDs in notch 8..What more can you ask for??

  • Thats not notch 8, thats 2 units in heavy dynamic breaking, lol...

  • go friggin train, go!

  • Sorry - just my ignorance - but I thought dynamics were for braking. If they're going uphill, why the need for dynamics?
