Lots of Horsepower Here
Author: skokieswift

Southern Pacific GP9E 3380 and two SW1500s head past a corral filled with a different kind of horsepower with 20 heavy ore cars on the Prairie Scale Model Railroaders Club in Lombard, IL. The three units are certainly getting a workout.

Thanks for looking.

Very nice! Couple, three frisky Phillies in that corral.

Nice pic, but not so sure about the lot of HP claim. Looking at 4800hp with those three, only a few hundred more than a single modern road unit.

I think it's a pun since there's a lot of actual horses (in model form) also in the picture.
