My buddy said something about the dynamic braking of the diesels they had to control it somehow not sure how so not to slow the forward momentum. It's something I d like to find out. Why it stopped in Latrobe dont know as it was not scheduled. As we asked the one engineer in Altoona. Now the Big Boy seemed to be running a pump at the station.my buddy heard on net that Big Boy used more oil than what they planned coming over the mountains.
