Ma'm,

Maybe it's me, but that video seems really quiet. I was expecting a little more...roar and noise. Really wanna hear those 645s.

I will say it's well-shot and framed.

Definitely more of a "Ford Slow". I made the consist for the Green River route, but wanted to see how it ran on the Moffat Route, it did much worse than this not too far further up.

If it's struggling on the Moffat Route, I can only imagine what it would do on Tennessee Pass. XD
