This is what it's all about! Best clip I've seen (actually more about what is heard) in years...goose bump inducing!

I was running the 765 on this move. We had a 5 mph restriction on the connecting track in Ashtabula. That means that when we got the word that the rear of the train was clear of the connection track, the whole train was already on the grade. When we got the all clear, I put the throttle on the roof and the 765 went to work. On a 1.5% grade she accelerated from 5 mph to 21 mph with 21 cars behind her!
In this video scene, the throttle is wide open and we're doing 21 mph.
Lima Super Power? Oh yeah!

That was some great footage...I'll tell you the 765 never fails to impress. Thanks for the info Rich.
