A Reading T-1 4-8-4 with 21 cars on this grade is equally if not a little more impressive. I watched one pull a train east up the grade and the protect engines (this was back in the E-L days) didn't have to hook up. A Reading T-1 has a very sharp chrisp exhaust when pulling hard. I'm looking forward to hearing one pull on that grade again in the near future..
