Ron Moraca General That GP38-2's going 35mph, Rick. I've seen heavy depressed center flatcars going through the yards in Missoula, MT, and the maximum speed was posted on the FDH. 12/25/2007 6:12:48 PM
Ron Moraca General It seems strange to me that the B40-8 isn't leading this heavy load, because it's rated at 4,000 HP, while the GP38-2 is only rated at 2,000 HP. 12/25/2007 6:19:56 PM
