    There’s only one thing wrong with this video—–The comfort cab is the rear trailing unit!!! and for yellowcorba1, you counted the cars on the train, I take it you’ve never had to get off the locomotive, in the middle of nowhere, in the middle of the night, after a rainstorm and walk 120 cars to only have to set a bad-order car out that has slag dripping off the wheels, counting 120 cars on youtube is nothing compared to living it!!!

    I think that they should build an emergency vehicle only bridge. They should put siren activated gates or something like that. (btw I completely made that up on the spot, but sounds like a good idea……)
