    You may not think the AC4400CW needed a big brother, but it got one anyway. I'd like to request this 6000 hp monstrosity and some equally ridiculous services for it.

    Fun fact: Australian mining company BHP set the world record for longest and heaviest train by using all 8 of their AC6000CWs to pull a 7300 meter long, 682-car loaded ore train weighing 99,734 metric tons. I think this sounds like fun.

    It should also have a horn that causes rockslides, please.

    You mean for Sherman Hill 7010-7079 Sand Patch Grade 600-699 & 5000-5016. Some of the trains in Sand Patch Grade really need a AC6000CW because SD40-2 only makes 3000 hp two of them 6000hp if combined with AC4400CW 7400 hp. AC6000CW with AC4400CW 10400 hp for Sherman Hill and Sand Patch Grade Intermodal coal and Autoracks.
