On Friday I put together my Kaiser Fontana coal train.   50 cars, all 
now weathered.

Four Santa Fe 'gators on the head end (RSD15's) and two more cut in 35 
cars back in the train.   All units were powered.

I put them all in the same consist.  Ran at drag speed and made 2 or 3 
complete circuits before it was time to leave.   I had run a couple of 
circuits with 5 on the head-end before trying the mid train helpers.  
Wanted to see if any of the cars would cause a problem first.

Something different and it worked without a problem.
