Utah Rwy 9010 is leading a coal train at Kyune with 6 units up front, the third being a 5000 hp CAT. 6 units are at mid-train with one being an F45 and aSD20. Check for the flaming exhaust on the MK5000 in the fall away at the signals. Video taken April 2001. Thanks for watching...

  • Jack, how do they monitor the engine conditions (temperature, oil pressure) of the pushers?

  • @gonetoworkbbackin5mi There is a crew on the second set of helpers. If any of the units has a malfuction, it will shut itself down, and an alarm will go off alerting the crew. If you look at one of my other videos, "Soldier Summit, 36000hp+, you will see a crew member walking down the second unit. He must be getting ready to check something out...

  • Notch 8 baby!!

  • #8 it is, and their doing a fine job of it!!! Thanks for watching. Jackmp294

  • Why not just make it 2 trains

  • Because once they get this train over the mountain, they can take the middle six units out, and the train can then make the rest of the trip to its final destination with just 6 units, and one crew. This saves the railroad the fuel, ware and tare of six more units, and the cost of a crew for that trip. Thanks for looking. Jackmp294
