    Could be the setup of an railroad version of a classic joke:

    Two switchers, tank car, and a passenger car roll into a yard... :p

    The SD45's were the railroad equivalent of the 1960s muscle cars. Big engines, lots of power, and not to forget, lots of noise!:D

    Nothing like the sound of 20 cylinders (total 12,900 cu.in.) roaring at full throttle!:)

    Well put and I so miss the intensity of sound and feel as hard-working units pass by in this modern era. Everything sounds rather muted today.
