Now this was interesting. I have never seen anything with diesel power like this. Back in the mid 50's I remember long trains of just old steamers being hauled to the smelter. These were alive. As far as the question about what the power would be of all the engines? Beings they are not pulling hard other than the leader and the back were working, the rest are idling, but combined horsepower under load of all the units would be in the 50K to 53K-HP. Thank you once again for the interesting video.

Hey, I'm from VT. Small world. Kind of have to travel out of state to see any real worthwhile railroading. I thought the camera angles were fine. Doesn't bother me at all. And as far as I can tell the lead and trailing locomotives were the only ones running. You can hear the engines running and the Doppler effect as those two pass, and you can see the exhaust fumes over the trailing locomotive. Not the other ones. It makes sense too, locomotives are heavy, but not that heavy, and say it takes 2-4 engines per 100 cars, it would make sense for two units to be able to handle 14 locomotives each. Especially if all or some of them were idling and could easily be brought online for steeper grades or braking. Don't know if that is very likely though.

So many trains and so little time.. Can't go up there anymore since my wife has COPD and the 7000ft altitude is dangerous for her...

An entire consist of distributed power. With (most likely) only the front and rear units even running. Someone said they saw a puff of diesel smoke from one of these being used as a helper unit on the BumPhuck Montana sub once so the gov't made them scrap these and spend millions on a new fleet that may smoke less but surely costs more.

@kelharper7971

Not very long, unless they were broken up throughout the train. The limit becomes coupler strength and risk of derailment when you try to pull a train more than 100 or so cars. Maybe 200 tops, if you have a nice, straight, level track. Otherwise the weight will just yank couplers out, or you'll pull the train right off of a curve. Buckling can happen even with locos in the rear. You'd need some in the front, some in the middle, some in the rear. Say 300 cars for 12 engines though, depending on the track.
