Hello Dan,
I am curious about what the starting and continuous tractive effort is for 50 ton loco 720 that is now at the SV. I found an article on-line, "A historic day at Owenyo", about SP No. 1 which stated it had a tractive effort of 24,500, which I think is the continuous T.E., correct? Also do the 52 tonners that went to Costa Rica have the same horsepower and T.E. as loco 720 or were their T.E. ratings slightly different?
Sincerely,
Andy
