I'm almost confident that they can't be dragged in the middle of a consist.pablo wrote:Perhaps a stupid question...but is that thing FRA legal? That thing looks rough...it's not even in the consist behind the power like most dead in tow units go...Why wouldn't it be? Its not leading or being occupied so all that safety stuff isn't needed..its dead in tow...long as the brakes work...
