Neil Stutzman General That has to be the only time a rr has had to store power right out of the show room. 5/9/2008 10:34:19 AM
Sean Kolker General Hey Neil,bet that`s not true now. 2/19/2009 11:21:44 PM
Gregg Bartley General If the had these new locomotives, it seems like it would make more sense to use them and retire some of the oldest ones which probably require a lot of maintenance and upkeep. It's cheaper to run new equipment than old stuff. That's how it works with commercial airplanes, anyway. If BN had these, seems like they should have been put to immediate use. 3/12/2009 3:53:15 PM
