Bryan Smith General I heard back in the day that this set of locomotives was bought to handle intermodals. They were supposed to be speedy back when speed really counted. Soon however they were pulling everything from coal trains to drag freights.....and even intermodals sometime. 6/5/2012 8:16:21 PM
