With the maiden run of BNSF 6656 West, one of the latest in the ES44C4 deliveries, the question to you "rails" who run these locomotives is: In your experience, what locomotive pulls better, the C-C trucked C44-9W or the A-1-A trucked ES44C4? Both are rated at 4400 horsepower but the DC m

they appear to be similar to a dash 9

Other than physical looks in the train-sim I wonder how it would actually preform compared to a usual ES44.

Since it requires new trucks I doubt you'll see it...plus the new SLI units already have an F/A on top, so they would have to remake it.

BNSF ES44C4 locomotive

Hi every one. I wanted to ask this now that thires some new sli BNSF gevos out if a F/A creator would be willing to put some time into makeing a right ES44C4 like the new c4 orders that BNSF got this year and last? THanks to who ever is willing to takeing this on. I know the c4 haves been out sense 2009. The ES44C4 provides 'a direct replacement option for the current six-axle, 4 400 hp locomotives being delivered today'
