You like 'em, eh, Steven? You'd like 'em even better if you had the chance to ride them. I believe they were the best riding diesel I ever ran. They rode like a baby buggy; really smoothed out less than optimal track. We ran them in passenger service also in the wintertime, towing around the blowing-snow-shorted-out-traction-motored EMD Fs just for their steam generators to heat the trains.
