Tonight (Sunday) I was watching Dirty Jobs on cable and Mike Rowe was servicing the crawler used to move the space shuttle to launch position. It is propelled by two 251 V-16 Alco engines. They each drive two 1,000 KW generators for traction power. Kinda gives Alco fans bragging rights over EMD, FM, and GE guys.
