Re: [VIDEO] RFW ride on LIRR Grand Central to Jamaica

It makes more sense to me than the idea that they can't get up certain grades.

Obviously they can get up the grades. Low gears, or their electrical equivalent, allow a weakly powered vehicle to get up a steep grade, very slowly. Some people have claimed that they can't make it up the grade quickly enough to prevent a traffic jam, if they are forced to stop. That is at least plausible, though I haven't any present supporting evidence.
