>Someone coined the phrase “bad behaver” regarding locos that fail while on the road repeatidly.

Sometimes we used the term "sick puppy".

>Applied to P-42 & 59PHI here in California.

Not very often. These terms have also been applied to GP-9s, SDP-45s, F-40s, etc.

> Caltrans cap corridor has a new Siemens SC-44 number 2107 that had failed on multiple runs.

I don't know what people expect from super glitzy, over-computerized European wonders.

>The last failure was a couple months ago and it has been out of the fleet.
Just saw it running solo.
>So it must have been repaired and usually runs with another loco for proof testing.

Then it was down for repairs, not "out of the fleet".
