Same problem with the U30CG's and the Amtrak pooches not to mention Amtrak's own E60'sNo, they were absolutely not "too heavy for the track". P42DCs are heavier per axle (67,060 lbs/axle) than the E60s (64,500 lbs/axle), P30CHs and SDP40Fs (64,333 lbs), or any U-boat. Amtrak limited the E60s to 90 mph No, they were limited to 80 mph. The E60MA rebuilds could do 90 mph. Their weight per axle was 61,000. |
