Neither are true, they have more power to get up to speed quicker then the rest of the fleet, and they are more fuel efficient then the rest of the fleet as well.
@@shauntakata1762 Those MACs are 24-25 years old, but regardless of age they are still the quickest and most fuel efficient units Metra has. Ask some of the engineers who run them and see what they have to say.
Nice catch!🎉
I’m so happy the sd70machs are here. They’re my favorite locomotives with my favorite horns!
Same. I just wish they ran on the BNSF line. The Milwaukee lines always get the new stuff even though the BNSF is in desperate need of new equipment.
Awesome 💯 Greetings from Palm Beach Florida
