One artifact of the steam era that remains in use to this day; even modern AC traction locomotives need help on the biggest hills.

Coal and steel don't go bad. This album features long, slow, heavy freight trains; drag freights, slop freights, dead freights, etc. Trains with lots of power, and lots of different cargo slogging along behind.
