I can say that when I saw 9 operate Phil, she had NO problem pulling the train up the grade. I don't recall how many cars were in it, but I'd guess 5 or 6 ? Will might be able to shed some light.

They also did run one of the diesels with two cars as well. So two trains hauling passengers.

Not sure if that is how things are now, but that's how it was last fall.
