How to stall or too much tonnage for Cape Horn video

A few days ago, Drew posted some great photos of the EB Reno Fun Train climbing Donner Pass in Calif.

I have uploaded a video from 3-3-95 from the same location. I would have named it the big choo-choo that couldn't, but it's really named DRGW 5372 at Cape Horn CA . With 5-2-2 (no DPU here), the Eastbound SP train with 8000+ tons stalled 3 miles up the road. That killed the prospect of seeing it again in daylight. Enjoy.
