When the engines come out at the bottom, you can still see the caboose at the top of the helix. Yes it is long, but it is fun and interesting to run. This is one of the first trains that Santa Fe used to develop radio control of the helpers. They built those B-units to be the receivers for the helpers. The B-unit got signals from the lead loco and sent them to the helper locos. Today, we have DPU and all sorts of radion controlled locos in trains. It all started way back when. Santa Fe learned alot and was a pioneer in developing what we have today. By the way, those are RSD15's (DL600B) locos called "Alligators" on the Santa Fe due to the long nose.
