The car is 6000 pounds heavier than a M-2 and after seeing its performance in crash in Bridgeport, I say each pound is worth it.They use more power since a M-8 is 1060 HP per car vs 620 hp per car for M-2/4/6, its not much more as it has AC propulsion and has very little waste heat from grid resistors to regulate power. |
