The twin WDG4 combined 9000 HP piglets were struggling to pull the heavily Over loaded BCNA Freight train . KJM WDP4 20060 came on a rescue mission to act as a Banker to push the Freight train out of the Station.

I waited for almost 1 hour to capture the Banking action but the freight was not given clearance to move hence gave up on capturing.

Re# 1088031-3              
yes I'm also thinking how come 2WDG-4 not able to haul a freight that also not a long haul...& if it was overloaded then from origin itself the loco should be unable to haul...must be a case of loco failure or otherwise hard to beilive 9000 HP cant haul 3000 MT load.
