a class 60 hauling passengers would be fucking overkill, it would be like a god hauling feathers
>>947025
>Let's create a locomotive powerful enough to haul 4,000 tons and make it pull coaches
lmao
class 60 a best
>Tractive effort Maximum: 106,500 lbf (474 kN
>>947073
yeah, nothing comes close to the class 60, this locomotive single highhandedly replaced the need for double heading
which at the time was an incredible feat of efficiency, and to this days standards, it still is.

>Nothing comes close.
Shit an SD-45 has the same tractive effort and they were built in the 60s.

Yeah well American locomotives are built to be pulling 2 mile long trains, but they are actually inefficient, it's just that that's all you have over there, so theres no choice, when you guys produce the modern day Class 60, then ill be happy

>Actually inefficient
Except they're not. The things you Euros lie about.
Will Britfags ever realize that they are just playing with toy trains on their little island?

>weighs 40 tons (30%) more
>doesn't have to fit in shitty victorian loading gauge
Yeah, if you have the abovementioned going for you, it *is* easy to do with 60s tech.
