cantankerous?
uh-oh.
Better not let Skip hear you talk about his baby #14 like that.
Before Skippy chimes in, #14 is an unstoppable beast. She rarely breaks down, and does have the capability of handling a 9 car train. So as to not beat her up, we know her limits and don't ask her to pull a 9 car train very often.
A few years ago when #40 was in Alaska and #12 was being her misbehaving self, #14 worked an entire summer without incident.
cantankerous? #14 is anything but.
