With the P42DC finally re-released on the Steam Store (http://store.steampowered.com/app/222627/), I decided to play around with the locomotive's capabilities. To be quite frank, after a modification to make the traction characteristics more realistic, I was quite impressed. Managed to balance out at 70 mph on level track with a the heaviest and longest train consist Amtrak operates; the Auto Train. 2 P42DCs + 16 Superliners + 28 Auto Racks. Since there are no Amtrak Auto Racks yet, I subbed in UP racks for the time being. She still stalled going up a 1.5 percent grade, so I suppose tacking on a 3rd engine for increased grade performance would be good.
