Re: For you Train Buffs.

For something that really screams power, here's picture of a EF-3 heading a eastbound freight to Cedar Hill passing Burr Rd. in Bridgeport.
This engine can easily pull a 150 + car freight with ease. One motor (electrics are called motors) pulling a 150+ car freight leaving Oak Point to Bay Ridge can make the grade leading to the approach for Hell Gate Bridge from a dead start near the approach while a trio of diesels with less cars have to make a long back up move to make a start up the approach.
