Of course. But look at all the nonsense they throw in, including the claim that the "dual-powered" hog will "save fuel"—how? not even the Genesis III was projected to go any faster than 60 mph in electric mode, and even going back then, 285,000 lbs sounds totally impossible for total locomotive weight when you consider the size of transformer necessary to step down the high voltage.
