"Cabbage" cars on Wolverine

[trainfan]

For years the NPCU P-40s have alway been leading the east bound trains , never (That I have seen) leading a

west bound , but just within the last month or two they have started leading the westbound trains. This is probably

something that is missed by most people but when you get adicted to watching and rideing trains little thing like

this really bug you till you have an answer!!!!

Thanks for any input!

Wow, four engines. A bit overpowered, eh?

I'm pretty sure what he means is 2 engines per train, one on each end.

This thread really got tied in Knot!!! :lol: At least half the wolverine trians run with a f-40ph cabbage. They alway

used to head the east bound trains, but just lately switched and are now heading the west bound trains. I just wondered

why they switched?

Hope I got it right this time

Thanks

I think it just depends on when equipment is available to put on the train.or if a unit needs to be pulled for repairs, etc.

and yes BobWeaver thats what i mean.
