Horsepower and Slow Trains.

["Karl L Rethwisch" <karlre@r...>]

Mike, Bob, et all,

If we're talking about HPT, ol' 97 was one of the finest examples of an 
overpowered train I ever ran.

The best of the best was an early seventies train with SEVEN new, or nearly new 
units. The consist was three 45's and four 40's with 68 cars totalling a 
whopping 2108 tons. Now with 22800 horsepower, let's see -------- what is the 
HPT???

Bob, Bill, is the name Niles Haar familiar to you ??
